Then other day I picked up an old gateway to put Windows 2000 and Xubuntu on. I didn't come with a video card but had an AGP slot. A friend gave me a ATI Rage Turbo Pro 3-D AGP video card. The thing is old but so is the computer.

However the thing I need help with is the CD-Input & Output plugs on the card. [It has a plug on it similar to the back of a tv so you can hook a tv to the computer and get input.] What do I do with those input plugs because I want to get audio input to a TV set.

Those plugs use a cable that goes from the back of the CD drive to the card... usually a standard. Just ask any used parts store for a cd audio cable, they will understand you.

I already have an audio cable running from the cd drive to the sound card. Will I still get analog CG-Audio.
