Stupid question alert..

What options do I have if I want to connect up a Sky+ box, wii, Xbox (original) and pc to the same display ?

PC will be running a 8800 GTX..

thks !

What about
PC-> Display via DVI connection

and then :

Sky+,Wii and Xbox -> Switcher Box -> display via Analogue?

That would work. What display do you want to use as this will affect how you hook it up.

Is it a TV or a computer display?

If its a TV then as above mix and match whatever connectors you have on the back.

If its a PC monitor then you'll have to get the right cables for the consoles and check out the KVM switches section. As for adding the sky box into this mix, I'm not sure if it has the right output.

PK!

i've currently got my pc displaying on both my 26inch hdtv for watching movies etc, and my 19inch monitor for gaming. then 360 etc through the tv's various connections. Sometimes run dual screens, using this set up.
