I just bought a westinghouse 37" about 3 weeks ago and the picture quality is superb. I have my 360 put into the vga port and all I have to say that this is the best gaming TV ever! My only complaint, there is only one vga port. I really want to hook my regular xbox up since its modded and can upscale dvd movies to 720p. But it is such a pain in the ass to go behind the tv and switch cables every time I want to watch a movie. So I found out that my DVI ports are DVI-i, which means that they will accept digital and analog signals. So i figured that I could plug my xbox into one of them using a vga to DVI adapter. When I did that I got a no signal message on my TV. I called up westinghouse and they basically had no idea what was going on, all they could do is confirm that I have DVI-i ports.
Can somebody help me out, what am I doing wrong here??
Maybe you had one of those things, a DVI-to-VGA adapter... You can get them from Graphics Cards packages and in some TVs too...
What you are looking for is that kind of thing (from a french website, I dont know if you can order from it) :

EDIT: That website doesn't deliver to the USA.
