I am trying to figure out a way to hook up my PlayStation 2 to my computer using component cables for the better quality in picture. The thing is I can't find any card that has component in. Everything I have seen on the net including all the ATI TV Wonders have composite and s-video, but no component. Does this exist? If anyone can point me out to a PCI card that does this I would be so grateful. I am trying to hook everyhing up to my computer monitor and this has stumped me so badly.

If you have a 3 cable AV cable assy then:

RED = R Stereo
WHITE = L Stereo
YELLOW = Composite

You need a TV Tuner Card with Compsoite IN.

The Stereo will need a two stereo jacks to one DIN plug to insert in the LineIN of the PC

All the ATI AIW's come with a multipurpose "dongle" and wiring adapters that allow you to connect component video inputs, no problem.
Download a manual for an AIW and take a look.
There are also clone cards, usually ones that have ATI chipsets, very similar to the AIW that have that too.
