Temoor


I have the xbox 360 slim, and only component cables. For a computer i have a Dell Inspiron One. It is an all in one computer meaning the computer and monitor are combined.What would i need to connect my xbox to this paticular computer. If i need to buy anything how much would it cost thanks peoples! THIS IS TO PLAY GAMES ON MY MONITOR NOT TO CONNECT TO WIFI...


Answer
you can't, it only has video outs, not video ins, as it would not need to have them as the monitor is the computer. Only if the computer and monitor are separate, which they are not. And if you had a different monitor you wish to use, you would need a Xbox 360 VGA cable.

xbox 360 through monitor?




Heyy


Hi,

I heard you can play your xbox 360 through your computer monitor. Does this mean that the xbox games will be in hd even if you dont have an hd xbox or not? My monitor is 1080p hd and desktop is pretty good aswell



Answer
Every Xbox 360 is capable of displaying HD video. Some Xbox's have an HDMI port, and some do not.

If your monitor supports HDMI input, and you have a recent Xbox 360 that has an HDMI port, then use an HDMI cable to connect the Xbox 360 to your monitor. This cable will carry the video and sound to the monitor. If your monitor does not have speakers, or a headphone port, then your sound might get lost in the monitor.

If your monitor doesn't support HDMI or if your Xbox 360 does not have an HDMI port on it, then you would have to use a VGA cable which Microsoft sells: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/hardware/x/xbox360vgahdcable/. This cable has a VGA connector which will send the video to your monitor. There are also two audio connectors which you can plug into your speakers or headphone (via adapter).

If you already have a computer connected to this monitor, you may have to unplug the computer from the monitor to be able to plug the Xbox 360 into the monitor. Some monitors have multiple inputs that would let you have both connected at the same time.

Hope that helps.
