I dont think its possible, theres no A/V Cables for it.

Without buying anything?

I assume you need to get the proper cable to hookup to it?

You need an expensive converter thing, forgot what they are called, bottom line is you can't.

Take a picture of the ports off your monitor.

Get a VGA cable for your xbox, I use it with my screen along with a box which switches from PC to xbox, they are like £3, or $7 dollars.

Unless you have an HDMI cable and HDMI port on your monitor, you can't.

I spent over $100 to be able to do this with anything that uses S-Video or composite inputs.

No.

These people are all crazy, there's tons of different cables you can buy for not too much. If your monitor needs VGA, for example, 3 seconds of googling got me this:

It's probably not even the cheapest solution, either. Obviously you can't do it without buying anything, that's just silly.

but if you get a monitor with HDMI support, an Xbox wont be the only thing you can use it with

alright, have fun buying a new monitor for no reason.

well, i bought a dazzle, a composite input extender, 12-foot-long cords, splitters, and it all amounted to about $125.

:o
