    Hmm?
    What is required to play a games console on a PC Monitor? I know there's a special cable I think what's it called? Can you just buy something that converts a scart to the monitor input type? Or is it more complicated?

    Thanks

    Errrr.. I'm not completely sure about this, but, if your graphics card supports it (has one of those lil TV ports), you can plug your RCA connectors into the adapter that came with the gfx card and then plug the adapter into the card.. IDK if that would work, just a guess.

    What? Monitors are superior to TV's. They may be smaller, but they will produce excellent quality, almost as good if not as good as High Definition.
