    Is there a way round not being able to play an original xbox game on my 360 with VGA to my monitor? I downloaded Psychonauts am told the VGA does not support PAL-50, which is needed. Any ideas?

    I think you can switch it back to PAL-50 if you use the original video cable that came with the console, and then switch back to your VGA cable. I seem to remember having to do this at one stage, I think when downloading an update for Halo 2 or something. It's a bit of a pain to be honest, since there's lots of 360 games that need 60hz, so you could be into a lot of cable swapping. And I think Major Nelson said they wouldn't be adding PAL-60 support to the XBox Originals. What would be handy would be if they could change the dashboard to include the PAL-50/PAL-60 option in the display options even when a VGA cable is being used.

    Ciarán.

    Thanks Ceejay, I'll probably hook it back up to my TV to play this. I'm not sure you can use VGA with PAL-50.
