I am using a Gigabyte Radeon 9200SE AGP which has a VGA out and a Svideo out.
Th VGA out is being used and the S video is empty. I have a spare monitor which I want to connect to the S video but I do not want to use a TV (crap for viewing text). I will be using the twinview function hence the 2 monitors.
Are there any connectors/converters to plug into the S video out but view on a monitor ?
I can find heaps of VGA to S video converters but I need it the other way round.

S-video signal is pretty poor. Even if you could get it to run on a PC monitor the text would be barely readable.

AGP cards are getting hard to come by. So your best bet is to go through ebay and get a cheap twin VGA/DVI graphics card. You could probably pull it off for under $50.

I want:
one monitor for viewing security camera
other monitor will be for MSOffice and MYOB

Does PCI-express fit into an ordinary PCI slot?

pci-e wont work on pci, you will need to look for another one in AGP..

No it does not.

Mate few things
is the security cam running through the pc ?
if yes then just ned a second monitor and have a dual graphic card
you can get a 512mb pci-e card for as little as $150 now days
or even under $100 for 256mb dual out puts,

Do you know what graphic slot you have Pci-e pci or Agp,?

if camera is not running through computer then go a different path.

thanks MR2
I'll get an AGP card with DVI and VGA out. Use an DVI to VGA adapter plug to run my old skool CRT monitor for the office , and the other VGA out to view the security cam

that sound ok?
