Your monitor has a cable connected to your pc...unplug this and it should look something like this

Then plug your VGA cable in to your XB360
Now you'll notice that by themselves these cables do not connect.

Here is where the female to female adaptor comes to play
plug your cables to the female to female adaptor like this

CONGRATULATIONS you have succesfully connected your xb360 to ypur pc monitor NOW remember to set your xb360's resolution to the resolution your pc monitor supports you can do this from your *system* section on your dashboard

NOTE to acquire sound from the connection you'll need a system that has a L/R sound input
plug the two audio wires that leave from the VGA cable to your sound system that has a L/R audio input
