360 on PC questions

Ashok_2

Hi -

Had a few questions about playing my 360 on my PC/laptop.

• I connected my 360 up to my pc monitor fine, and got the picture on the screen, but the connection does not fit into my laptop, apparantly i need an adapter or something? Do you know what they are called so I can find one?
• I can see the 360 picture on my PC monitor but can't get sound, the cables have a red and white cable, and my current speakers are a 6.1 creative set, and there is no connection for them, im not sure if they can go in the aux in or headphones socket, but if so, I guess I need some kind of splitter, again what would I need to buy for this so I can find eBay?
• In the near future I was considering just having one screen for using computer, playing 360, and watching tv. It doesn't necessarily haev to be a TV, as I can play TV through my PC.. But, is it possible to get PC monitors that are HDTV, so I can play 360 properly?

That's it! Thanks in advance!

You can't connect your 360 monitor output to your laptop without some specialist kit. The connector on your laptop is also a monitor output.

You can get an adaptor to convert the red/white audio cables to a 3.5mm phono which your speakers should be able to use. This should be easy to pickup at Currys.

Yes, but the other way around. Many HDTVs have PC monitor inputs.
