| There are a handful of motherboards that claims to have TV out support. But most of these require additional hardware purchased to complete the functionality. And some of them even requires initial configuration in BIOS to enable the TV out functionality and that means you need a monitor to configure the settings first. But this particular board which I came across recently does it all pretty well. ASUS M2N-PV-VM It supports HDTV Component/SVideo/CompositeVideo outputs and the additional hardware is bundled with the motherboard. And there is no configuration required in the BIOS to enable this feature. If you are planning to assemble a good machine for your Windows Media Centre PC, this motherboard will be bright choice. |

| Thanks for the Reply!! I purchased this motherboard as per your suggestion and know what, I have totally saved the cost for a monitor. I did even the Windows Xp installation thru the TV itself. When browsing file I use the magnifier utility that can be opened by StartMenu > Run > "magnify". This enables me to operate the system using my logitech cordless desktop s150 keyboard/mouse from a distance of 10 feet from the TV. I have set the screen resolution to 800x600. The Driver CD that shipped with the motherboard contained only Vista drivers. I downloaded all the drivers from Asus website and ForceWare from Nvidia web site. The system boots to desktop in just 10 seconds !!! |
