First of all, I did a quick search and could not find a similar thread.

I have just bought a 24" monitor for my set up and i wish to run my xbox through it. How would you go about running the console through the monitor and speakers so i do not have to connect/disconnect cables. The monitor has an HDMI connection and was thinking of buyint the xbox to HMDI adapter but I am worried about the sound, Ideally id like the sound to be carried through the computer without having to physically change the cables. However, I only have an onboard realtek soundcard. Is there a way to put the xbox cable to another port in the back of the soundacrd?
