Just set up my PC and thought that I could get Freeview on it but it only tunes terrestrial channels as I just have a coax aerial not going through digibox or anything. Do I have to invest in a digital TV card for my PC to get Freeview? If so any recommendations.
Cheers.

sorry to tell you but yes. you will need to buy a digital tv card. get the wallet out and get down to pc world!!!
p.s. sell your old card on eBay or something, better than letting it collect dust, but dont sell it if its from a new pc. if you need to take it back you are better taking your addons out and leaving any old ones in.
i always do that.
