you saw my pictures right? if you don't like the lcd, i'll take it

in fact, i'll give you my gamecube and 30" sony tube tv for that tv =D

Not complaining at all man. I love it!!!. Just not as nice as the plasma thats all. As much as that offer is appealing I think I will pass this time.

Yea it's my camera. I took the pics with a cell phone camera. It's not very good when taking pics in bright light.

emagic, is that a monitor or a small hdtv? it looks pretty cool.

here's my updated setup with the vga cable! i am convinced that vga vastly improves the graphics. my lcd as so many pixels that jaggies are a rarity and you can barely even see the pixels! i recommend this!

hope it worked and hi im Luke im new here we got the console my colour tv ( not hd i will update when the alleged price drop happens) and my speaker system its hooked into

you really will see the difference when you get a hdtv. you dont even need to splash 600gbp+ on one as you could buy a widescreen monitor and a vga cable for 160-300. i have the viewsonic above^^^

i have heard about that can u explain how this works?? the last fourum was well full of ideas who dint no i basicaly need an idiots guide im no good with it all

you may recognise this cable. it is the vga cables used for computers:http://www.infres.enst.fr/~campmob/doc/images/vga.png

it plugs into something like this: http://i.i.com.com/cnwk.1d/i/ba/bg/m...2_VGAinput.gif and this sort of input is commonly found on pc monitors or some hdtvs.

but then you can use this: http://www.xboxgazette.com/i/cable_vga360.jpg to plug your 360 into a monitor with the input in the link above.

on this site http://www.ebuyer.co.uk/customer/pro...subcat_uid=354 there are many lcds. i recommend 19" as anything below is too small and any thing above is too expensive. widescreen is also good: http://www.ebuyer.co.uk/customer/pro...duct_uid=98788 or http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=326963 . the latter is one of the best around. that' what i have!

virus knight82 · 02-06-2006, 05:49 PM

is youre 19 inch?? ok so can i turn my pc on load media shared connection ( basically allow me to go on live) then take my monior plug out and put 360 plug in and there it is on my screen?

jophassa · 02-06-2006, 05:51 PM

yeah. if your monitor is 4:3 (more square looking than a widescreen) you will have to change the settings of the console to 1280 x 1024. this can be done by accessing the console settings.

Nice setup! Yes it is a small LCD HDtv hooked to my 360 via VGA cable. My LCD also has DVI and component video outputs.
