Did I make a mistake buying this card

Where does it say that? Also, I would take that card back and buy an x800 pro pci-e refurb from the ati site for $179.00 here: http://shop.ati.com/searchresults.asp?dept_id=39 . And then just buy a tv tuner separately if you really want one.

Then what do you have? PCI-E or just a regular PCI? You never specified what you had so it makes it hard for us to help you. By the way, ever considered buying a seperate TV Tuner card? MSI sells a real good one for $50.Rysjimmy1994 said:

Sorry for not being specific about the video card i am using, it is a PCI-E. The All in Wonder x600 PRO only comes in a PCI-E. But I cant expect everybody to know that. Back to the topic at hand, what card should i buy then if the x600 is ****?

If you are trying to stay less than $200, I would suggest getting a Nvidia GeForce 6600GT and a seperate TV tuner such as this:

And whoever mentioned that the X600PRo is the only Video/TV card you can get for PCI-Express, you're right. As far as I can tell, you have two options: Keep what you have or pay a little more for a better card and a seperate TV tuner.

it all depends on your budget. there are multiple topics you can check on what card to get at which price range. in this case, if you want a decent gaming rig and the ability to watch tv, then i recommend 2 separate cards instead of one. ive heard Hauppauge is a good tv tuner card brand.
