Re: DVI to Component adaptor advice needed for a Media Centre PC.

There are a few online vendors that sell DVI to Component cables. A better
solution is to see if your TV has an RGB connector designed specifically for
PC's.
Video cards don't do interlaced video so you will only get 720P. The
resolution (assuming you have a real HDTV and not one of those Gateway
specials which are EDTV) of the display will be 1280 x 720. Your 6600 should
have that as one of its desktop size options.
