I was wondering whether anybody knew of a converter that could convert HD signals from my 360 to my CRT monitor.
I have already seen this:
http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-01-49-en-70-1d2s.html
but want to go with a major online store, and I've searched places like newegg.com and they don't have anything except VGA to HD converters.
Any help would be appreciated.

I'm confused, why can't you just use the Official Xbox 360 VGA cable

--Monitor)))))))))))))))))))))))) Converter
--Speakers))))))))))))))))))))))
(((((

----Xbox 360----((((
((( = Input for HD and Audio
))) = Output to Peripherals
To my knowledge you can plug in the Official one but you need to keep changing between computer and xbox.
With my current system I can do just that with the press of a button (switch between xbox and comp input).

That diagram didn't help the situation at all.
Basically, you're wasting money. Either stop being lazy, switching a cable takes < 5 seconds... or use your money properly and buy a decent TV or another monitor.

I decided that your right about me wasting my money, but I'm going to make a switch myself for the input and output (which will cost close to nothing).
Anyway, thanks for the help.

Yeah, but I can get everything practically for free besides a Mad Catz VGA cord for the Xbox ($20).
