Ok, Ultramon looks to be the Bombe, now for a video card that will fit into my NtwVista X41 for HTPC use.
The only expansion slot on this beast is a half-height slot. I'd like to drive the HTPC output with SVideo with an option for HDTV DVI over the next year.
Something with a reasonablly modern chipset from ATi, MVidia, or Matrox would be great. Not so much for the hardware, but the the comfort level I have with their XP drivers.
Suggestions?
thanks!

I've got an old ATI Radeon 7000 PCI. It's rather thin, has tv-out, DVI and is passivly cooled.
Got it for about 20 EUR at ebay.
That might work for you.

This card, G550 Low profile PCI is probably your best bet. And BTW, apart from S-video G-series also have Scart-RGB.
There was also G450 Low Profile, but as far as I remember it was only AGP...but you ask at matrox tech support forum (http://forum.matrox.com/mga/index.php)
There are also more expensive options...

Millenium P650 PCI low profile. However I'm not 100% sure it has TV out (some models of P-series cards doesn't...), so you'd do best to aks at matrox tech support forum

Matrox QID Low Profile PCI...quite a beast (same thing as to TV out as above, better to ask)

I have a sapphire radeon 9250 agp card with dvi, vga and svideo out. Is half height, are dirt cheap now, and for anything but gaming it does the job quite well.
