Hey all,

I recently upgraded my 19" to a 24" 1080p with tons of input options. I have my PC hooked up to it with DVI and now have a HD cable box sitting under it hooked into it with HDMI. The problem is, I have no sound!

Do any of you know an affordable solution to have the same speaker set to be used for both the output of my PC and the HD cable box? Say a new sound card or audio set? My PC output is standard ASUS onboard audio, and the audio output on the HD cable box is component red and white.

Oh, also, since I switch video between my computer and the cable box, does anyone have any experience with getting those PCI TV tuner cards? Turning this whole thing into a full blown media center isn't out of the question. Please link any products you suggest (newegg etc).

Thanks for any advice.
