Dock II with PCI card?

#1 Post by armortec » Wed Dec 15, 2004 11:26 pm

I read that the Dock II can accept only 1/2 height PCI card. If i want to install a TV tuner card, it must be 1/2? That's not easy to get one! Any one has a better alternative to install a TV tuner with T series?
TIA.

Get a USB 2.0 TV Tuner.
For example:

Just go searching around your favorite online store and you are bound to find more.

Armortec,

Many PCI-based TV Tuner/capture cards ARE 1/2 height. I'm using an ATI TV Wonder Pro PCI-card with Remote in my Dock II right now. :)
