The video card I recently purchased had a 7-pin output from the card and I needed to purchase an Y-splitter adapter cable to split the 7-pin video output from the video card to 4-pin S-Video and RCA video.   I then could choose which type of video I wanted to connect (S-Video or RCA). 

It turns out that the ActLabs TV USB light gun does not work for me and the ActLabs people think it might be due to that I am connecting the hammerhead connector of their gun at the end of this 4' long Y-splitter cable and not directly to the card itself.

Anyway, in order to test their theory, I wanted to get a cheap 32Meg video card (maybe GeForce) which has a 4-pin S-Video connector mounted on the card itself (ie: no need to use an adapter cable to connect a standard 4-pin S-Video cable).

If you have anything half way decent, please respond to this post, PM me or email me at emailAddrRemoved
