You can't. The Wii's software just doesn't have that functionality. |

No, I had the auxiliary cables plugged into my computer, I know it will work, I just don't know where to go. |

I use DScaler for viewing my webcam and game consoles, you could give that software a try. |

Oh, I thought you were talking about networking for some reason. |

Well I got DScaler and I still can't figure out how to see my Wi on it... It's plugged directly into the aux ports on the front. PS. My other account is messed up, I don't know why but I can't log in on it... |

Have you looked in Device Manager to make sure the aux ports show up? Perhaps you need to reinstall the drivers. |

Does clicking the "I forgot my password" link help? Read the important forum upgrade announcement. |

Sound, video, and game controllers would be a safe bet for the category, and seeing as it's an HP computer the device should be HP-something. Display adapters just covers your video card I think. Did you make doubly sure it's aux-in you plugged into and not aux-out? Did you look through DScaler at all the available video sources? |

I checked to make sure, that's what I was thinking when I first could not find it, This is the setup: S-video 2 Composite input 2 _ _|Audio input 2 and then all the rest is fire wire, head phones and usbs... Upon further inspection I looked in the back, and directly on my video card there are primary aux ports, and that is also where my cable is plugged into. |

I haven't a clue, all I know is I have a tv tuner card. I didn't think primary video cards had video input... I thought they only had output. Unless of course you got one of the fancy ones.

So... you have the cables plugged into the front and the back? o_O I'm confused. Should only plug them into the tuner card, and route the sound from the tv tuner to your sound card with a mini cable if need be. DScaler is compatible with just about every tv tuner under the sun, if it doesn't show up under Sources in there then I dunno. Do you know the brand at least? |
