Re: sky+ to my pc monitor
I connected my Sky HD box to the PC monitor via HDMI and it was fine, however using another method, I have no idea.
Hopefully, someone can give you some information.~ Never, ever, argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience ~

Re: sky+ to my pc monitor
AH! so this might be the time to upg to HD, so as long as my monitor was HDCP and had a HDMI port it should work then?
is your picture as good as you would get on a lcd tv?
Thx for the reply by the way

There are quite a few VGA convertors about, here's one for £10 that sounds like it will do the trick.
