My Media Center PC - Part Trois

Back to my video woes...

So I stuck an old ATI video card into my new system to test if the poor S-Video output on my PowerColor card was due to the card, or something else in the system. Well, this old card's output looked immensely better. However, the card is quite old, and not compatible with XP MCE, so I can't use it permanently.

So, I went and bought a new "built-by-ATI" video card at Fry's and installed it on Saturday. Everything looks great now through this new card. I am still forced to use S-Video since my TV won't do 720p, but I'll have to live with that until I can upgrade my TV.

Are you going to be able to return the PowerColor Radeon 9600Pro 256MB ?
