Hi Guys.

Just qondering if anyone knows of anyway to connect a pc with a vga output to a monitor with a dvi input? I ordered what i thought was the right cable from the bay but it turned out to be described incorrectly in the add so instead of it being VGA - DVI it was actually DVI-VGA.

Anyone know of a way round this without gettin a new graphics card? He has his 360 connected through the VGA port so we can't use that without swapping the plugs around.

Thanks!

probably cheapest to buy a VGA switcher and put both through the VGA port?
