Default Connecting a PS2 to LCD monitor

OK. I want to be able to connect my PS2 to my 19" PC LCD monitor, but I don't know what adapters and lines to get in order to do this.

Anyone know? Rick maybe? I remember you had something like this....LOL

what outputs do you have on the LCD? Is it just DVI? or do you have component video?

If you plan to run HD output games 720-1080 on the LCD with component video, you'll need a what I believe is called a progressive scan box.


i kinda made a thread about it here a while back. h: https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...highlight=720p


...only my setup is not baller...i dont have equiptment ready for HD h: h:

Where? I was sad to see that there was only a VGA. W/ DVI, you can get everything the unit has to offer, yeah?

Mind telling us where to find the DVI output on the back of the PS2.
