We have been given an older Plasma at work and I'm trying to get my 360 to run on it. It has no component inputs but has a dvi connection.

When I plug in the 360 which I use at home on component with the VGA cable and DVI adapter I get a black screen. I can hear the 360 boot up but get no picture.

Is this because the settings on my 360 are set to component from home? How do I get to the VGA settings If all I get is a black screen?
 
We finally got it to work by nipping to asda and buying a universal remote for the tv. It turns out the plasma had a pc mode and once we switched it to that it worked.

We then ran in some speakers, so have 50 inch gaming goodness at work :D

We had a game of left4dead on split screen and I have to say I hated it, no matter how big a screen is I just cannot share it.
