When i'm using this cable on my screen I only get greens and yellows, thaught it was the cable, because when i'm using the composite one, there are no problems. So I got a new cable but the same problem again. No solution in sight... And I can't figure out where the problem is...

Also don't forget to check the colour mode on your monitor.

oh that bug, xbrix360 nr1 shitty bug the PAL60/50 that can only be changed in component cable

plug the component cable and change the Pal hertz and color scheme then try to plug in Vga
or
you could try a hard Video reset that will set factory settings.

While the Xbox 360 is starting up, hold Y and Left trigger. This will cause the system to reboot and reset to factory video settings.

well the original factory setting is 420p with 50hz Pal, you have to set it to 60hz non-extended VGA compatible resolution

Try a different vga connection, your VGA port might be damaged

Yes maybe your console is broken. I also had the problem with the greenish picture before I got my last RROD.
