Ps2 on PC Monitor

    Anyone done this?

    My telly is **** and I'd say the picture quality would be a lot better if I could hook the Ps2 into the Dell monitor.

    Any ideas???

    Are you using an RGB SCART cable or that dire Yellow/Red/White thing that most people use to ruin their games?

    The dire thing!

    I usually unplug the scart bit though and connect each of the three coloured wires into the telly.

    This is easier said than done I am afraid!!

    You need to have the composite and audio cables connectors on the computer and they must be IN ones

    Most new computers and computers with Windows Media Centre will have these

    You would go about this like plugging your camcorder into the computer.

    When you have it connected, I am not sure how you would make the picture full-screen, but you could always go to Windows Movie Maker and go to capture and watch it there??

    Effort!!

    I'll see what I can do. It justs looks so much better on a big screen. Maybe I could use a tv card as well, my brother has one of them.

    Thanks Timbuk.

    i have tv tuner card i use, no delay but some do have a delay, like milli second so itsa impossible to play games, look up a thing called "gamebridge"

    u can get adaptors but they dont work too good, with color bleeds etc

    You should try a proper RBG SCART cable then. It will give you an improvement. If the picture is still bad then it's your telly. But the SCART cable should be less than €10, so it's the cheapest option for now.
