My mother is moving to a retirement home and I am driving up to
help out re-connecting all tech stuff. She recently got a notice
that her Cable service will go all HD by end of November, so her
analog PCI TV card will stop working. She is 78 yrs old, likes to
watch TV and play solitaire at the same time on her 24in LCD
monitor. Location: Sudbury Ontario.<br>
<br>
What card would you suggest for her system? I can't remember her
mobo maker, but what I do know is that <br>
<br>
* there are 2 PCI slots NO PCIe SLOTS<br>
* RAM is 2 gig<br>
* hardrive is 250gigs<br>
* she has an NVidia video card -- can't remember the model, but
nothing fancy<br>
<br>
I was looking at this card:

<br>
It looks like PCI cards are definitely getting harder to find! Are
there external USB cards that would work? She will be hooking up
through a cable set-top box.<br>
<br>

I forgot to mention that she is running Mageia2 Linux.<br>
