Or if you're really desperate and want an upgrade anyway, get a video card with TV-out.
I'm nut sure if the Radeons support this, but it rings a bell...

I think this card also acts as a hardware based MPEG 2 decoder as well so the decoding doesnt have to be done in software like it does now. Although the ATI Rage 128 Pro may do some of the decoding - I doubt it though. Hardware based decoding is very nice if it works smoothly.
Anyone know the details of the ATI and decoding MPEG 2?
