Getting Progressive Scan VGA box to work

[stormbreak]

Ok, now that i know my monitor won't support 720p (see my other thread) but i know it does support 480p but i can't get the bloody thing to work!

I have tried changing the dips, i have put the settings on the 360 to 480p, i have put the component cable to HDTV, i have tried everything!

I have also changed the resolution of the monitor on the PC before i tried to boot the 360.

Is mine a defect or what?

I reckon you should ditch this plan to be honest, as your crippling yourself to 480p. You'll be able to play in essentially-HD 1280x1024 on your screen with the VGA cable, and is a much more sensible route that what your doing tbh.

Yes, i will try to get the cable later on when i can find it but i do want to try and play in 480p now and i will keep the box for other devices or maybe sell it. But first i want to know if i have a defect or how to make it work.

Replace the monitor ?

Best bet would be to (ideally) borrow/ buy a 360 vga lead and see if that works - a lot cheaper than buying a new monitor.

Yeah but i know now that i monitor does support 480p but the bloody thing willl not work. I don't think it is the monitor.
