PCI graphics card needed for MCE

Andy_Millman

Hi all,
I'm looking for a new graphics card to replace my Geforce 4 Ti4200 which unfortunately isn't compatible with media center edition.

Requirements are:
- must be agp (I said pci in the title but I meant agp!)
- must be silent (i.e. heat sink - no fan)
- must be MCE compatible

Other than that I don't play games so don't need anything too fancy. Any advice??

Many thanks

I think almost anything you buy now (new) will be will be compatible for mce - just have a gander round the likes of ebuyer/dabs/microdirect and pick up the cheapest agp card that suits your purposes.

Your Geforce is compatible with MCE. Get the latest drivers from https://www.nvidia.com

If you're talking about the TV part of MCE, you need a TV card. Have a look on Ebay for Hauppauge ones. Try and get one that does digital terrestrial TV so you can get freeview. https://www.hauppauge.co.uk lists what supports MCE.
