If yours doesn't have this then you could get the Xbox 360 VGA cable if your TV/monitor supports this. This will then give you the same benefits as the HDMI including allowing the viewing of upscaled DVDs.

Didnt think it upscaled normal dvds that much.

On my Sony TV it does 1080p so yes it should do if your monitor supports it using VGA. You will need the phono connections on your monitor or you wont have sound though.

To hook the standard 360 cable to my monitor?
I just want it on my monitor for a better picture as i can hardly read text on my tv when my 360 is on.
Picture ain't all that either.

Won't the sound parts of the cable be built into this?

I would of thought so, as i haven't any sound input parts on my monitor?

It's built into the 2 phono connectors on the cable, which you need to plug in somewhere as a standard VGA cable doesn't carry sound. Maybe you can get some sort of VGA to DVI adaptor to make it all work.
