I read somewhere, maybe here, that it works but is slow. I am going to hook up my PS2 later . I know playing PC games on the HPTS you need to either set your Nvidia controls aspect ratio handling or the games are stretchy, kind of like how you choose how your desktop will be displayed . If you do change the aspect for games, the touchscreen becomes worthless in the game. In Sims 2, the widescreen default aspect makes my Sims a little plump but it's a cool game to use with touch. When I played Lionheads The Movies at default aspect they were really fat. lol. So I don't know how PS2 will handle widescreen.

I will try soon and let you know.

Any developments on this, I would also like to know if 360HD is working, its the only thing keeping me from buying the touchsmart.

You can hook up your 360 to the Touchsmart. You will need to either connect it with SVideo, or get an RCA to Coax cord and connect it throught he coax input on the Touchsmart. Then, go through the Media Center setup. When you get to the part where it asks you if you want to configure it Manually or Automatically, choose Manual. Then pick Antenna for the connection type (easier then picking Cable or Satellite) follow through the prompts selecting the correct input type (SVideo or Channel 3, you will see the image in the little box when you get the correct one). Then just finisht he setup. Some games like Guitar hero have a calibration mode so that you can configure the game to accomodate for the lag on the screen. Use this for every game that you possibly can and you won't have many issues with the lag you'll see.

That is definitely not the route I want to go because I want HD out of my 360. Thanks anyway, anyone else have any ideas?

Have you even got ur xbox360 working, when ur asking for HD ??

There are no other input options on the Touchsmart. It only has a coax and SVideo input.

my xbox works in hd on my current tv. i was thinking of replacing my tv and cablebox with this touchsmart pc but now i see that this is not such a good idea.
