Looking for a certain adapter

[xanis]

I have a 19'' LCD monitor in my basement and I'm trying to put it to some use. I'm not sure if the adapter I'm looking for even exists, but I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone knows about it.

I'm looking for a VGA to component adapter, male on VGA, female on the component.

These exist, but there is no guarantee they will work.

The issue is VGA is the RGB color space and Component is the YPbPr color space. If your monitor can handle an input of either and detect which is which, you will be golden with a simple adapter, if not it will display some rather funky colors. If your output device can output RGB component it would work as well.

Ok I didn't know that. I'm trying to connect a PS2 and maybe eventually an Xbox 360 to it.

This is the monitor I want to connect to FWIW: http://www.hyundaiq.com/pro_b90a.asp

I think it's good display for GPS system applicate to and personal car entertainment

I've used VGA->Component adapters before without a problem. DVI->Component is generally a much bigger issue.

This should work fine:

Edit: Oh, you need female on the component side? So you'll need this too:
