I have an Xbox 360 that I bough in India. I moved to US couple of months back. Can you tell me:

1. What kind of Power Converter to use so that I can get XBox to work?
2. I have a Sony Bravia I bought in US. Will it be able to receive signals from an Indian Xbox. I am told the India Xboxes outputs PAL and the US Tvs are NTSCs. Is there a way around?

Well if you use HDMI i dont believe you will have a problem as i used a PAL xbox in canada until i got RROD.
For power i was using a power converter i got in England it was an industrial one though.

Good News! It worked! Here's what I did:

1. Power Supply - Bought a 110 to 220v Step Up ad aptor.Cut the Indian Power Supply Chord of XBOX and fitted it with a US adaptor at one end. This was connected to the output of the Step up transformer, whicn converted 110 to 220.
2. Display - The standard AV that I got wit Xbox in India did not work - Went to best buy and bought a Component HD cable.

Regards,
Manu
