    Hi

    is it possible to instal a internal TV tuner in D830?
    My config is :

    Cpu : T9300 2.5G 6M
    ram : 4G
    vga : quadro 140M NVS 256M(d)
    monitor : 15.4' wsxga+

    Is it enough space for it inside the D830?
    Which properties should have a tuner ?

    I'm not sure which company makes that model so if you could elaborate that would be helpful. Have you looked on that companies website to see if they offer one and/or if it tells if it is internal or not?

    I'm pretty sure it's not possible to install an internal tv tuner if there's no room for the necessary connections (cable etc.). Your best bet would be an expresscard or usb tv tuner.
