Hey I'm not sure if this is the right area to post this but I figured it has to do with gaming so I'll try it here.

I want to hook up my 360 to my laptop in order to play it in my room. I've looked around and I can't seem to find a good device that connects to the laptop through usb. I ordered one that looked good but it had a delay from what happened on the 360 and what i saw on my screen (is that called ghosting?). It made playing halo impossible. Does anyone know of a device that can connect a 360 to a computer through usb? I don't need it to connect the sound I only need the video.

I have a satellite L-35 s2174 so if there is anything built in that I don't know about please let me know!

Thanks in advance!

It will be near impossible to get anything USB based that will give you good live view of what's going on w/ the X360. USB has latency as it's biggest crutch.
A dedicated PCI VIVO card might be OK but may still have some latency.

I doubt you'll find a great solution that does give you some delay, and at the price you'd end up paying for a more sophisticated capture card you're going to get into the price of a 20" LCD anyways, thus losing any benefit.
