Hi I'm about to buy an x1800xl all in wonder card someone pointed out that it says NTSC analogue video format instead of PAL and I'm in ENgland. http://www.dabs.com/productview.as [...] 2#infoarea

Would this still work or is there not much point in me buying an all in wonder card with a non working tv tuner? Could I buy something to convert the signal? Thanks alot for your help guys. Ant.

buy a seperate tv card for about £30 to except digital braodcasts these all in wonder cards are crap for tv, they only except analog signals which will be switched off in the UK in 2009 to 2012.
