Help,
Can anyone suggest the best tv-out solution. I tried xcard from real magic. Good resolution but you still need the monitor. What i'm trying to do is setup a htpc using the tv as a monitor for everything. I still have not found a s-video out that's not blurry. Thanks,

You won't either. S-video output is limited to 480i and is not acceptable for text rendering or displaying your desktop...period. There are NO s-video output solutions for PC's that work for anything more than non-text based gaming and media display. You might try using low resolution and large text with most newer graphics cards if you're determined. Keep that monitor handy though, you'll need it if an application changes resolution on you.

You really need to look at digital displays that support higher resolutions if you are serious.
