Actually, I have an XClaim VR128 in my old, G4-accelerated 7500 in the
basement (which used to be my main computer). Always assumed the video
ports were just for input. I might look into that and see if I can use
the 7500 in this manner instead (since that card won't cost me
anything additional).
Hey on friday I will try plugging my minitower into the tv and see what
happens. You might try upgrading to mac os 9.2.2-Jonas

video game box and thought I'd be able to simply run RCA (or S-
Video) from the personality card's outputs to my TV's inputs. Although
the sound comes through, I can NOT get the picture on the TV.
The ONLY way I've been able to
