    i have my g50 vt x5 and i want to use the express card slot that it has, so i was wondering is there is an express video capture card, you know that has input connections to connect something like a vhs, and show it on the screen of this laptop, or even connect a ps3 and play and record games, o and that it is vista 64 compatible, I know that there some usb appliances like easycap but the ones that are on sale in the states are not vista 64 compatible :(

    thanks for your response.

    Theres alot of tv tuner cards with this functionality. too lazy to look it up but saw a couple on newegg. One i liked had flush connectors so nothing sticks out. Supports antenna and other inputs via the adapters it comes with.

    Note your not going to find something that supports hdmi, all your ps3 video will be standard definition. HDMI recording cards are very very expensive and unless something has changed recently generally limited to desktops at this time.
