XBox on computer screen

[.Maleficus.]

I would get an AIW, but since this will be on a primarily Linux machine and Linux and ATI don't mix so well (or it's at least makes more work than I want to go through to get it working good) I want something that won't be terribly hard to configure.

cheztir, that box looks nice, but sadly, anything over about $40 is too much for my budget.

I will probably buy a TV tuner card soon (meaing in the next month hopefully) and I will try to get it working on my current Linux machine. If it doesn't work, I will just have to use XP since I plan on dual-booting just not using XP for much other than games.

But thank you for all the help everyone!

I recommend Diamond brand for tV Tuners. I have one from them, I would have to give them 9/10, Although they do break easily.

The xbox cable should be around $20 if I am correct.

Do I need another? I still have the one from when I bought it but is there a special one that I need for a TV tuner?

I will look into Diamond then, since that's the only recommendation I have.

Yes, I guess you can go with that one. Also here is the cable you need.

XBox 360? I only have the old one, so will that work? Also, what is the point of that cable?

They make direct Xbox to VGA cables, no adapters.

[.Maleficus.]

They do? Where do you buy them, like Newegg or or a game website?


Edit: Does anybody know if the cable for the Xbox and Xbox 360 are the same? The one for hooking it up to a tv I mean. Because I can find Xbox 360 to VGA cables, but I can't find any for regular Xboxs.

I've seen better ones before but this is the best one I could find now:

Xbox VGA Box

but you can just search froogle.com for: xbox vga -360
you have to put the "-360" so it excludes Xbox 360 VGA cables which everyone makes...
