Can anyone recommend a TV/FM Tuner card that will be recognised by Vista
Ultimate's Media Center?
I know that I could switch my video card for an All-in-Wonder or similar but
would prefer a separate TV card.
It must accept cable input, thanks.

don't bother with the AIW, it won't work in Vista and ATI has no plans to
support it.

Hauppauge PVR-150.... or the PVR-500 which is the dual tuner version.

Thanks Cari, there's also the 1600 I see that is Vista comatible. Do they
fetch FM stations as well as TV though?

Well in this case I don't mind. I don't like the Asus 7153...too buggy.

the 1600 does not come with a MC compatible remote, so I use GB-PVR instead.
