Composite video from video card

I've been asked to find a video card that will support "composite video" - so that a presentation can be run on a PC and shown on a TV monitor.

The PC is quite a distance away from the TV, hence the reason they chose Composite Video and not SCART or HDMI

The TV supports all 3 standards - HDMI - Scart - Composite Video.

The composite video input is a single yellow phono type cable (RCA type) and not component video, where the video is supplied in 3 cables RGB style. (Red gun, Green gun, Blue gun.)

I'm having real difficulties sourcing a video card for PC which has the choice of PCI or PCI Express interface and can offer a composite video output.

If anyone can help suggest a video card that would be great. Also the TV is a UK spec' so I'm not sure if that would have any bearing (PAL versus NTSC ? ).

Thanks for any help.

Thanks guys, much appreciate your advice & suggestion. I'm going to try the USB 2.0 box 1st (cheaper LOL !), and if that fails, I'll try the VGA convertor - thx again.
OK, great. Good luck.
