Video input on Radeon 3850 with Vista?

Wednesday, October 15th, 2008
Jason T asked:


I’m looking at a Radeon 3850 video card to put in my media center PC. It says it has a VIVO port for video input but does anyone know if that port works with Vista?

I know the All-in-wonder cards do not work with Vista. I’m hoping this card can take the signal from my satellite box and put it through to the monitor.

Any ideas?

Need help with setting up my 360 to play using my computer?

ralph i asked:


Ok so I have been trying to set up my 360 so that I can play it on my computer but I can’t seem to figure it out. On the front of the computer there are audio and video (yellow, white, and red) inputs. anyway, I have everything hooked up, but I can’t seem to be able to get my computer to play the Xbox 360. I have a HP Pavillion Media Center TV PC, if that helps.

Some help with this would be much, much appreciated. XD
