I planned to buy an Xbox 360, and VGA HD cable so I can play using my PC monitor. I just noticed 1 thing, my PC monitor doesn't have VGA-in port.  doh.gif

My monitor: 17" CRT Samsung 763MB.

At the rear of the monitor only have power socket and the VGA cable (unremoveable) which connects to the VGA-out port on my graphic card.

Any other cheap solution that available locally so I can play Xbox 360 in HD resolution?  cry.gif

EDIT:

I found the solution, I can still use the VGA cable, provided I can find Female to Female VGA Cable / Adapter.

It looks something like this:

Any idea how much it'll cost?

hehehe i also forgot already how much was it but i think it was not more than rm10.

And if I play Xbox 360 on CRT monitor (which have 4:3 aspect ratio), will the game be displayed in 4:3 ratio or will be in 16:9 with black bars on top and bottom? Or I can select which ratio I want in system setting?

you can choose normal screen or wide screen in the setting. if you select wide screen sure got those top and bottom black bars. i am using the normal 4:3 ratio in my crt and very happy with it. if can go wide screen much2 more better lah but have to remember also... very important thing MONEY!!!

yup this is the one bro cylon helped me to buy from lowyatt plaza. actually if you extra budget just buy the original msoftvga cable better no need sakit kepala at all. everything included and also the connector all very tight. 3rd party the vga cable connector that connects to 360 a bit loose one smile.gif
