What you need is the AV card that shipped with the 6100 AV it has the S-Video 
and has 2 MB of VRAM.

I have that card but alas it is in use with the 6100 currently in service. I do 
have an HPV card with 2 MB of RAM IIRC from a 7100 that should work with the 
angle adapter but does not have the S-Video. You can have this for shipping if 
you want it.

 I also have the HPV card from a 8100 recently populated with 4-256 KB VRAM 
modules for a total of 4 MB VRAM. It boots a spare 6100 OK but I have not 
verified all 4 MB of VRAM is recognized. I need to run something like 
TattleTech 
to verify the added VRAM is there. This card is not for free or for sale at 
this 
time as I am still experimenting with it. And it does not have S-Video out.

All the HPV cards do not fit properly (about 1/8 inch too long) but with a 
little effort you can get them to work. The 6100 AV card is a natural fit.

I do have an extra HDI-45 adapter and a CD-ROMs you can have for shipping. Also 
have some parts of the angle adapters but not the the actual brackets as they 
are in use. I can photo all the parts including the 7100 HPV card and send it 
to 
you (off list) if you are  interested.

Of course you know of the great 6100 upgrade site. <http://kan.org/6100/>

Anyway this is somewhat off topic for the subject of the tread and for list; so 
contact me off list if you are interested in any of it. Good Luck --glen
