    How to connect XBOX 360 to HD monitor

    Last week I purchased HP 2009M 20-Inch HD LCD Monitor. Now I would like to connect my XBOX 360 to this monitor and for this I needed your help. First of all, what cables do I require to connect the XBOX 360 to the monitor? Secondly how can we connect it? Is it possible for me to connect or should I call some engineer or expert to perform the same?

    Below are the steps to connect an Xbox 360 console to a monitor by using the Xbox 360 Component HD AV Cable:

    1. Turn off the Xbox 360 console.
    2. Connect the audio-visual (A/V) connector on the Component HD AV cable to the A/V port on the Xbox 360 console.
    3. Set the HDTV switch on the A/V connector to HDTV.
    4. Connect the connectors on Component HD AV cable to the corresponding color input jacks on the high-definition TV. Do not use the yellow RCA composite video connector; leave it disconnected.
    5. Turn on the Xbox 360 console and change your display and HDTV settings. Here’s how:
    a. Go to My Xbox, and then select System Settings.
    b. Select Console Settings, and then select Display.
    c. Select HDTV Settings, and then select the appropriate high-definition setting for your TV.

    If you have a cable with HDMI connector then that will do and help you to connect to Xbox 360 to HD monitor. But if that's not then I would suggest you to go to Newegg or Amazon and get some HDMI to DVI cable. Other than that above methods would also do the trick.
