    Hooking up my Xbox One to a VGA monitor?


    My monitor's resolution is higher than 720p, so I know it's efficient enough to use with an Xbox One. However, my monitor is not HDMI, it's a VGA. I'm wondering what are my options?

    If anyone could give me any detailed info on this, that would be great!

    Thanks

    :)

    Blurry 1080p via HDMI- impossible to solve?

    Could it be that you have a bad HDMI cable? Try another one. If that doesnt work, try hooking up the Xbox through VGA. Just be advised. I have heard the 3rd party cables are garbage meaning you should get the official Microsoft one.

    Hooking up my Xbox One to a VGA monitor?

    VGA is an analog connection and the X1 only connects to digital sources, hence the hdmi. I don't believe there is a viable option to connect to a vga monitor but you would be able to connect to a newer monitor that has hdmi in ports.

    Using a HDMI port on a laptop w/ monitor

    the vga port and HDMI ones on laptops are outputs only so no the only way to do what you want is to hook up a 360 to a PC monitor (CRT/VGA or LCD/LED) sorry.

    xbox one s can i use my pc monitor like a tv

    Hello Beach,

    Thanks for coming to the forums. There are ways to hook your console up to a PC monitor. IF it has an HDMI hookup can go straight from console to monitor. IF monitor has VGA hook up, you will need an adapter that goes from HDMI to VGA. You can purchase
    these almost anywhere lowest I seen around $8.00 USD and up.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Brad
