TV/Computer Help!

Question...

My TV has a PC input which I use... I just recently got rid of my external PC speakers and just use the built in speakers that are in my monitor. So I go to watch a movie and I'm getting no sound probably because I have nothing in my PC since I have to unplug it to put it in the TV.

How can I get the sound to come out of my TV? What type of input will I need? What should I be looking for.

Thanks.

of course there is no sound.

You need a cable. 3.5mm stereo (headphone) from your laptop to rca to your tv.

Can you find me a link so I know what exactly to get?

So will the 3.5mm plug into my PC then the RCA's obviously into my TV?

if your tv has a 3.5mm input then all you need is a 3.5mm cable male on both ends. If not all u need is the 3.5mm to rca cable. Probably the most common cable these days. the same kind of cable you would use to hook up your ipod to receiver. Go to kmart, walmart, radio shak right now and get to watching your movies.

6 foot should be good.
