What should I get to convert my images to NTSC signal? I am currently using an inexpensive external box to convert signals from a Orchid Pro-designer II to NTSC to a Sony EVO9650. This works fine but I would really like a truecolor output instead of my current 256 colors. I hate to sound like an uninformed person, but I am. I thought the Truevision Targa+32 is what I wanted but now I am second guessing myself. So, here what it comes down to… My system basics, 486/33 36 Meg ram Diaquest 232 Sony EVO9650 1. What is a good card to get true color images from 3DS to NTSC signal? 2. How much will this cost (I can spend apx. $1500.00) 3. Can I do all computer work with this one card or do I also need a second VGA card? (Would prefer to use only one.) 4. Is the quality of this card worth the cost or should I just stick with what I'm using now? I would appreciate as much input as possible… Thanks to all, ken elwood

Ken, If all you are willing to spend is $1500, then look no further than the Targa+. You will have to spend atleast another $500 more for a better card (IllPro 2MB). Ang
