Right i currently have a standard 19inch pc monitor. Its only got vga input. I am looking to upgrade when i ve got the cash to a bigger monitor with hd input aswell but anyways.
I also have a standard xbox, ie the old one. Is there anyway to get this to play on a pc monitor. Like is there a hdmi cable of vga/dvi cable that i can get for it??

Thanks for any help.

Yeah if your looking for any old product always try ebay because they usually have the best deal. You can also use google to see if the product exists, if not you could prolly suggest it to microsoft or whatever the company is.
