Is there anyway to adapt a component-out source cable into DVI (or VGA) out? For example, I'd like to run my PS2 through my computer monitor that only has DVI and VGA. I've seen converter boxes, but those cost too much. I'd like a simple adapter, but they seem to be very hard to find, which I suspect means they don't exist, but I thought I'd ask, considering DVI-out can be converted into component.
 
Component to VGA adapters cost next to nothing on Monoprice. The site seems to be giving me errors at the moment (figures, right?) or I would give you a specific link.


Hmm, seems they only have component to VGA adapters and cables, not the other way around.
 
An adapter doesn't exist. You have to get a converter as the video signals used in the respective connections are nothing alike.
