Care to elaborate please
i have 26 inch pc monitor without hdmi , but takes a normal green audio plug for audio.

so i had to get hdmi cable.
had to get rca to green audio plug converter , had to get from zakspeed.
then hdmi to to dvi converter.

then i had to break open the black rca connector , because it covers the hdmi cable at the back of the xbox.

that's the part I'm interested in because I'm the exact same predicament. How did you break it?

Thanks a bunch, was just a bit worried i break something in the process.

Now i can have a female RCA to 3,5mm male plug into my pc to have my xbox sound through my logitech X530 :)

Not 5.1 i would be getting through but you just saved me 800 bucks from getting the propper digital to analog converter for the optical.

Thanks again!
