I have ended up with several XBox (original) consoles and would very much like to modify them for use in my gameroom.

One, I came across and purchased several years ago that had been hacked, with a new HD installed, as well as numerous classic video games. It's pretty cool to find some old arcade classics on it, as well as video games from my youth, such as Atari, and Coleco Intellivision.

The others are just original XBox's that I've acquired. I would very much like to modify at least one of them, and install the old games. Unfortunately, i do not have the know-how, and services available previously via Craigslist seem to have dried up. Any suggestions?

Also, I am looking to suspend an old 22" LCD monitor from the ceiling to use with the XBox. It seems I need to purchase a converter box for the VGA signal. Has anyone else done this?

Any help would be appreciated!
