Sorry about that. I was planning to run a xbox and a Nintendo 64 through it with as little cost incorporated as possible while still retaining decent picture quality.

I dont know what you are asking...

OK... first are you tring to run the games on your computers MONITOR or withen the OS? you cant run the games on the actual computer (well not that i know of) but it is posible to attach the consol to certain monitors. You might be thinking of Media Center being able to hook up to the XB360 you might have heard of... this isnt playing games on the media center it is just data transfer between 360 and computer (correct me if im wrong) but so far this is all you can do. i belive...

(NT) Only possible if you emulate, which is a waste of time...
