Hi,
I'm looking to hook a pc up to my TV and use it to browse the web. I don't want to have to ever use a monitor. Is there a graphics card out there (a cheap one?) that can output to TV at boot, ie. without having to switch to TV using software. Or can I just set it once with a monitor and then take the monitor off and it will display on TV from then on???
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

OM.
 
A friend of mine has a Kyro II based video card with TV-out, and on that system the TV-out is active all the time, also during boot-up. This should be a relatively non-expensive card (about the same price range as geforce2 Mx I think). I suggest you check it out.
