Hey there guys!
For a few days i've been searching an answer for a issue, without any satisfactory answer. So i'll post my problem here, maybe someone can help me.
Here's the thing:
I recently bought an Xbox 360 Slim E. Plugged it on a LG Scarlet TV on my living room via HDMI and it was awesome. 1080p, stunning image. But since i don't have a TV in my own room, i decided to hook up the console on my monitor LG Flatron W2252 TQ, which have both DVI-D and DVI-SUB / VGA. I used a HDMI to DVI-D adapter. No problem with the audio, i just plugged the red and white parts from the A/V cable that came with the console on my external stereo.
My HDMI to DVI D adapter.
My problem is: when i turn on the console, i can set the screen resolution to 1680 x 1050 (native on my monitor). The image was OK, but clearely not HD. So i've noticed a message on the lower part of the video config tab: (in english) "Connect an AV HD XBOX Cable to config the high definition modes". The weird thing is, when i used my pc to play on the same DVI port, i could play games in 1080 max settings without any problems.
Message about HD settings
What should i do to get HD images on my monitor? What the hell is that "AV HD Xbox Cable"? Its the same A/V cable that came with the product box? Do i need to find and adapter like A/V HD Xbox cable to VGA or DVI? I hope you guys can help me. Thanks!
