A question we recently encountered was “I don’t have a TV in my room. Is there a way to connect my Xbox to my computer monitor?” The answer is yes, and luckily it’s a really simple solution. The first step would be to connect the HDMI cable from the Xbox to an HDMI to VGA Adapter/Converter to convert the digital HDMI signal into an analog VGA signal. This will allow your VGA monitor to be able to receive the signal from the HDMI game console. The audio can be connected through computer speakers or headphones with the 3.5mm stereo audio cable that is included with the converter. The converter is powered by the USB port on your Console. It will also work with other game consoles, Blu-ray players, camcorders, laptop PCs, and tablet PC’s to your VGA monitor. (Some might require an extra USB power adapter, sold separately)
