Xbox 360 + Acer AL2016W = "Input not Supported"

[Thundercloud]

I brought my Xbox 360 to my friend's house, plugged it into his Acer AL2016W via VGA, and I get the Input Not Supported error. Anyone knows what causes it or how it can be fixed?

I use the VGA cable at home on my LCD TV at 1360 x 768 without any problems. Could the AL2016W not support that resolution?

Could the VGA cable be not standard compliant? It's bought from DealExtreme.

It's very frustrating to not be able to get it to work. I don't want to play on his crappy CRT TV either.

Edit: Turns out, the xbox was set to 1360x768 at my house. But that resolution is not supported by my friend's monitor and there was no way to set the resolution back to 1024x768 without booting the console up through VGA.

Just put the resolution lower, and see which one works.

Although, I do have the AL1916W, and it worked perfectly on 1360x768, so I'm not sure why it wouldn't work on your friends

According to the manual (http://www.acerpanam.com/synapse/dat...16Wx_UG_EN.pdf) it appears to support WXGA at 1360x768. Try to adjust the max resolution on the Xbox to drop it down to 720p and that should work. Also, there is no mention in the manual to HDCP compliance, so this may cause issues.
