No, you cannot has a TV with S-video-in. > but does have component/composite. Any suggestions for a video > card/accessory? Getting a new TV isn't an option right now. I had the same problem a while back and solved it with a $30 2-way switch from Worst Buy. The switch had 2 S-video and component inputs, 1 S-video and component output. S-video out from video card->"A" S-video in on switch. S-video out from DVD player->"B" S-video in on switch. Component out on switch->component in on VCR. VCR 75-ohm connector out->TV input. (My old TV was built in 1991 and had no component-in.) Flip switch to A for doing computer things on the TV, flip it to B for watching DVDs. HTH, -- 207.
