all, it was kind of hard to tell if it had done him any damage.

Try Mugwump Jism. Bug Powder Dust will impair your driving.

YUCK YUCK YUCK!
I've got an MSI TV Anywhere Master. The hardware is great... the software
SUCKS.
- It takes more that 60 seconds for the FM radio software to even start, and
then it breaks if you try to adjust the settings. It also ignores the audio
input selection, so if you aren't using LINE IN for the card, you're stuck.
- The TV software is a few generations out of date and has errors and issues
in itself.
- MSI support offers ZERO support for the card.

You don't need an HDTV to watch HDTV. Just watch it on your monitor with the
HDTV Wonder. It will also do the other things you list.
If you insist on staying analog this may be of interest.

After much reading (and owning an AIW 9800 Pro), I'd agree.
Go with the Hauppauge PVR 250. Particularly if you want to play with
XP MCE or Beyond Tv.

After having twice bought Allinwonder's,the first PCI card was twice
replaced (after weeks of E-Mails and phone calls to ATI) before I got a
refund. The second one (AGP) failed after three weeks and I asked for a
refund rather than a replacement. I bought a Compro Videomate TV Gold PlusII
last month and am very pleased with it. An initial problem was quickly
sorted
out by E-Mail and the latest driver.

ATI or Hauppauge cheap. www.ebay.com has some for <$30.
You may pick one or the other for compatibility with other free PVR
software, eg. MythTv
see
http://www.shspvr.com/
http://www.mythtv.org/

But either one will come with all the software you need for basic time
shifting and recording/playback from your HD.

Also, if you have $$, you can look at the latest ATI HDTV tuner card or
the 3rd party HDTV tuner cards on sale at www.ebay.com. Works off
regular antenna broadcasts, and they'll give you even higher quality TV
show recordings.
