you _would_ have to use the headphone jack on the MacBook (that's your only sound output port, really) and connect that to some sort of sound input on the TV. What sound inputs does the TV offer?

it has a pc sound input, audio in for the right and left speakers (those red and white inputs)

s-video ( not sure if that carrys sound or not)

Its got a headphone jack

avi, HDMI,

rs-232c input (dont know what it is),

and its got one more remote contol but i dont know what that is

so thats all of them i hope you can find a way to get it working

Well, if you get the picture through your DVI cable, all you need now is a cinch-smalljack cable. Put that to the sound input on your TV you're talking about and to the headphones output on the MacBook. Done. If you go to an electronics store, ask for a cable that can be used for connecting a "discman" (or something similar) to your stereo. That's the cable you're looking for. The only problem there could be is setting the TV up so it actually plays the sound from this input while displaying the image from the DVI. But since I don't know what this TV can and can't do, that's impossible to say without the manual or simply trying it.

And: Don't be impatient if nobody answers here. The answers come when someone knows them.
