While they (nvidia) aren't recommended, they will work (until they die, which 2 of them have for me). You just have to use the vesa driver because all the other drivers play havoc with the real time that emc needs. I have a truly elderly 'tnt' that is working relatively well for me with the vesa driver, running at the max res vesa can manage on that old card, 1024x768. >As it is, my EMC computer has a VGA with built in Intel graphics.

I also have a test mule in the garage that is using a 2 year old samsung 22" HDTV receiver whose tuner died, but the rest it works nicely, running on the db15 connector from an ATI 9250 SE card.
