which adapter you are using to connect xbox ? because that need to supported by monitor the Xbox 360 output is not a DVI signal which is through the vga port so that does not perform any conversion. the adapter is not for each graphics adapters so problem is that.

get a VGA extender and just switching them whenever i need to that is VGA to DVI-D adapter.That plugs into a DVI port and allows a 15 pin monitor cable to plug in. use VGA monitor with HD15 male connector to any computer with DVI-D port.
