I have Windows XP Media Center Edition, has a TV tuner. I read about a way to configure my Gamecube so that it would play on my computer monitor, but can't figure it out. I plugged the AV jacks into my composite cables, and brought up TV tuner, but now I am lost. AID ME!

Some consoles, (360 for example) have VGA cables available. That's the only way I know of. :?

Rephrase your question -> 'which problem do i need to open'

My X360 is currently being used with my old 17" LCD monitor, and it works wonders, like stated, you need a VGA cable to do so (but it shouldn't cost a lot, maybe around $20 US for one?)

1. Check if the composite is for out or in. 2. Then check if the AV CABLE plugged in is which format normally it is in yellow video input and a 3.5 mm jack audio in so u have to convert it that format. 3. Select the av in from your tuner's settings. That should solve the problem but if doesn't tell of ur tuner model name.
