    if it has a VGA input then there should be another for the audio. A simple 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable will usually do, although TVs tend to be a bit random in what's compatible.

    Alternatively, if your TV has HDMI and your PC has HDMI then you *might* be able to get audio through the HDMI, you just have to check whether your graphics card supports audio out.
