    Does anyone know how to make the Xbox play through the X205? I've been told that it's possible but not how it's possible. If it's possible, it would be great to know how it's possible.

    It's absolutely not possible unless you have a tv tuner. If you DO have a tv tuner you can hook it up via red, white, yellow composite connections.

    The X205-S9359 does come with a tuner. And I can't find the option that brings the Xbox on to your laptop.

    I was able to hook up a normal TV antenna to my tuner. my old school SNES through coax. but you need the old regular analog video left and right sound inputs like the PS2 or PS1 has to use anythingother than coax have'nt tried it though your pretty much just trying to use the laptop like a TV at that point. I don't see the purpose unless you wanna be able to play and see like IM's and maybe a gamefaq on same screen.

    It would be a very usable option for people who travel a lot and had to say.....ummm live in tents and stuff. When you are taking a break you can play games on the NB and the Xbox. So if it was possible, then that would be great.

    People who have to wear ACUs and ABUs know what I mean.

    No one knows what settings I need to check to get the Xbox to play through my NB. I have all the hardware. I just need to know where to look to check mark the right setting.
