Depending on your video card outputs, you can do a number of converts:

The simplest is the HDMI to VGA converter seen here:

However, if your video card has DVI capabilities, it is recommended to use that output and use the converter seen here:

I have got projector and 5.1 surround sound but never connected it up properly...i have a ps3 and my brother has xbox we want to connect them to the projector and surround sound... HELP?

If your surround receiver has 2 HDMI inputs, connect both the PS3 and the Xbox 360 to the receiver with HDMI cables, and then connect the HDMI output of the receiver to the television. Simply connect the PS3 and Xbox 360 to the A/V inputs whether they are HDMI, Component, S video, RCA A/V, ETC. It does not matter if it is 480i 720 or 1080P as long as it is a Projector TV and not just a projector
