Default Computer problem

We are in the process of having a computer built to our specifications and a thought had occured to me.
I know that there are sometimes problems with Uk televisions, something to do with Australia having a different system to ours.
Will this problem also affect a TV/FM Radio card on the comp??
The model I was hoping to install is a
'Compro VideoMate TV Gold Plus 2, TV/FM Radio Card' Any advise would be most welcome.
Regards Chris and Andrea

Not sure if the card would work here, we also use PAL, but you might want to hang fire and get a high definition digital terrestrial tv card when you move over:

You need to make sure that the card can handle Australia's PAL B/G broadcasts as well as the UK's PAL I.
