I had an idea the other day when driving to work. im not sure if its possible but i figured you gous would know better than anyone else...
i want to hook up a spare PC to my entertainment center and use it along side my reciever. I pictured my pc hooked up with my tv as the monitor, and a wireless mouse and keyboard for me too use while in my recliner. i could use the pc for everything, so no more burning cd's or movies since the pc is there.
the problem is connecting my tv to the video card. ive seen it done before, but i never looked in to it, and they were special TV's. i want to use my existing tv for this if possible.
ive seen video cards with built in TV tuners, but i know its more complicated than that.
anyone know if this type of project is easily possible with a few PC mods?
