i've got the 64mb ati 8500le card, and it has vga and dvi, as well as a tv-out.. im not sure the name, but it looks sort of like a ps2 port. how do i connect this thing to my tv? alls i have is RCA's, and i'd probably have to go through my VCR anyway.

what sort of cable do i need? thx!

that thing is called S-video, what you will need is a S-video to RCA adapter. If you do had s-video ports on any of your TVs then using that will give you much better picture quality then standard RCA cables.
