I hope this is the right place to post this.. anyway

I want to hook up my ps2 to play through my monitor. I don't want to unplug and move my Driving Force Pro around, every time I want to switch between console and Pc games. My video card is a BFG 8800GTX and I have a 22" monitor with only a VGA and DVI adapter on the back, no component.

Is this possible? If so I appreciate any help Thanks Matt.
 
You could buy an standalone external TV tuner (not USB) that outputs to VGA. I bought one from Buy.com a while back to hook up a PS2 to a 22" monitor. It was a KWorld brand, don't remember what model name it was though. The picture quality was not great, but it was decent enough for $60.
 
Do you have a receiver that convert 480i to 480p and have component output? If so, get x2vga2. I been using this combination with my ps2 and have good results on the monitor.

So it's like this:

PS2---(component @ 480i)-->Yamaha V2100---(component @ 480p)-->X2VGA2---(VGA)-->Monitor.
