Hmmm... Tuners aren't necessarily the best approach, especially if your screen is more than 15" or so, since there is often a lot of interference from the other components of your computer.

You would be further ahead using a high-quality VCR as the tuner then feeding your computer with interlaced 480i video through s-video connection. Use the Prolink capture card without tuner ($42) for this approach.

Once you buy the card, use the application DScaler, which will turn interlaced video into progressive video suitable for display on your monitor.

if you don't plan on spending that much money, by a sub-50 usd ati tv wonder ve card.

then, before you bother installing those damned ati drivers, go and download dscaler at http://deinterlace.sourceforge.net

especially if you have winxp. ati's drivers have always been crappy, but believe me, you'll never see a driver set crappier than the one they've put out for the tvwonder ve.

you don't need the drivers to use dscaler, since it works directly with the hardware.
