I have six speakers attatched to my pc/stereo..
All you need to do is link it up via line out on your soundcard to your
stereo..goes into aux !!
As for your video card all you need is the cable supplied..
If no cable make one or order off line?
just goto a geforce website ;)

You need a "3.5mm phono lead into two phono plugs" plug one end into the audio out on your sound card(usually green) and plug the two phono plugs on the other end into the aux on your stereo. :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

Yeah nice one but your post wasnt there when i posted. :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: Tha video lead you need is an "svhs" you can usually find scart plugs with svhs sockets in them(like the one on your graphics card), then you can plug it in your tele. The svhs lead deosnt carry sound sound so you will need to run extra cables but if youve plugged in your stereo thats sorted. :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

What sound card you got BROCKSTER ?
You should have the appropriate one as they all have
line out / speaker etc..

[BROCKSTER]

im not sure its new tho i got it all upgraded and my speakers are pretty loud as well it cant be that bad

For maximum performance, I recommend using optical wires. Make sure that your sound card has a SP/DIF output and then attach that with an optical cable to your stereo to the optical input.

Or you could use plain old Phono leads...

A TV-Out and a VGA lead will do the job for connecting your PC to TV.
