by the way when i check my ram after upgrading the memory (with an extra 256mg ) from what was suppose to be 256mg it tells me i have 448 mg is this correct ? i thought it should be 512mg.

thanks john

Your onboard graphics is using 64mg of the 512. 512-64=448.

As to cards others here know alot more than I but personally I like ATI cards.

The multimedia series is here:

Most of the TV out functions are for using your TV as an additional monitor rather than playing DVD's.

When I search ATI for TV out I get this page:
