Anyone experienced with electricity here? (360 and LCD)

I'm using a 3rd party cable and I think it may be a little damaged (I'm borrowing it). I recall the owner saying someone else was having the same problem as I'm having. Should I try a new official cable, or is there such thing is a component to VGA adaptor (though this probably woulden't give me the resolution options the 360 VGA cable gives me, but considering my native resolution isn't listed, it's probably unimportant)?

Well, I went and bought a new official 360 VGA cable. And it appears to have solved my problem, I've been playing for hours and the screen has yet to go blank. I assume at some point in this time the fridge would have kicked in, but I can't confirm it. Why does this cable work? I have no idea, maybe because it's not a cheapy 3rd party cable (it also says something about "shielded cable", so maybe this fixed it?) and it's new, not damaged. Either way, my problem appears to be solved, hooray.
