xbox 360 hookup?

**Nubbs** · 11-11-2006, 06:56 PM

I thinking of buying a xbox 360 and wanted to know if it it possible to hook up the xbox to a laptop computer. The reason I want to do this is because sometimes I work midnights sitting in my work vehicle which has a laptop hooked uo in it and I want something to keep me awake. I have a power inverter so it can be plugged in. My laptop's operating system is xp pro.

I know you can hook it up to a computer monitor with a dvi cable...not sure about a laptop though.

As long as the laptop has some kind of Video Input(component video, s-video, or composite), it shouldn't be a problem.

Im sure they make a converter for those plugs (red white yellow) go try best buy.

For a portable yea...about the same as the ps2. If i was you i'd buy a higher end laptop with a good video card...that way you can play games and watch dvds.

Every job has its slow times, and a PSP is way better than twiddling your thumbs.

Before you start throwing stones make sure you know what you are talking about. I am working my part time job at the front gate at a dealership that has parts trucks delivered during the night. All I do is let them in and out. So I am not working the streets. THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK!!

All I wanted was some info and I get this.
