If your video card has s-video in, it should work.

On my tuner I have my S-video in use and its working but I'm using it as an output to my TV. I don't know if it is intended for imput but it might be. If that connection can be used for input check your settings. You may already know this but just in case you didn't S-video only carries the video signal (no sound) you will need to use audio cables too. GOOD LUCK

Hi thepizzaman,

What is the make and model of your tv tuner card? It sounds, seeing as though you can input with XP, that it is a driver issue. Either that, or the function is not currently available in the Vista driver. You could also try the manufacturer's forums for the card, but without the necessary information I am unable to supply you with any links (if they exist).
