I purchased all these items in hopes of playing xbox 360 games on my monitor. I hook them all up and no matter how I do it I can't get nothing to show on screen. The monitor works fine with my computer, and the xbox 360 works fine with my tv. I don't know what to do. Prehaps my monitor is incompatable for this setup. If so what monitor should I purchace. I am low on cash so prehaps there is some sort of converter. I read about an "analog to digital converter" but i looked that up and nothing seemed to be anything I could use. I came across that because I saw on a tutorial

that you have to set your monitor to analog. The buttons on my monitor seem to have no function unless it is pluged into my PC. And even then it says nothing about analog and digital. Please, I need your advice.

All you should require is the XBOX 360 VGA cable.

This should plug directly into your monitor.

Then make sure your display settings are setup correctly on your 360 (ie. 1280 x 1024)

This should take care of your display issues! :whistling:
