I originally went with the orthodox assumption that DVI meant no sound, so I connected my PC directly to some speakers, but I accidentally found out one day that DVI can carry sound. I'm not sure if all DVI outputs support this, or if I was just lucky. It's certainly worth trying.
Thanks mate, its been a good help for me...
