Re: Do you have technical issues? Let me try to help you.
I'm guessing split. My PC is hooked up to my tv, but it's old enough where the video and sound run from separate ports so I get video just no audio. I'm thinking a need a cable like I described to hook in the audio jacks in the back of the tv. Even though my PC is hooked up to an HDMI input, I can hear the audio of anything hooked up to the "Video" input while on that particular HDMI input.

OK.
So it sounds like you need a 8mm audio that converts to RCA. I think you're having an issue with your TV being old, correct? Go to radioshack and ask them for a 8mm (or auxiliary cable) that converts to RCA. They should have one. Some older TV's don't convert the digital signal from HDMI into sound, just the visual. -

I'm not sure how long this particular model tv has been around, but I just bought it a few weeks ago.
When I was talking about the ports (not sure if that's the technical term) I was talking about the ones on the back of the PC. I'll take some pics real quick since I don't think I'm explaining my problem very well.I went to see the president... again! -

OK. I get you.
First, why do you have another VGA coming out of your machine? What's that about? Secondly, it looks like either the TV isn't decoding the audio from the HDMI properly or your PC is not coding the audio properly. Either way, it's not working. You need to connect your computer's digital audio out to the TV's digital audio in. If your TV doesn't have one, you might need to either get a sound card for your PC that can handle the distribution of your audio stuff or get a receiver that can handle all of your sound needs. -

Unless you're seeing something I'm not there are not two video outputs on my PC, I just took a picture of both ends in case it helped you to see what I was saying.
I was told that the video output on my PC does not process sound because of its type (which I can't remember the name of), not because of any other reason. The PC is what is old. Does that sound wrong to you and I should just go with what you said earlier?I went to see the president... again!
