I suggest you google 'video card'.

 :dizzy:
Are you asking if your card is compatible with Soft15khz?  There is a list of supported cards linked in that sticky thread.

Standard GFX cards cannot output at 15KHz normally, this is why Soft15Khz was invented.

Check the Soft15Khz thread, its alot of reading but you learn alot from it, If you are going to connect a PC - TV/MONITOR then you will need the VGA to SCART cable as well.
