Connect Dell Dimension 3000 to Sharp Aquos LC-42D64U

Nov 28, 2009 11:05AM PST

Help!

How do I connect my Dell Dimension 3000 to my 42inch Sharp Aquous (model LC-42D64U). The Sharp Manual says to use the Monitor input and add an audio cable connection. While I understand that, wouldn't I lose my desktop monitor and external speakers? What do I do?

Online, I've read about DVI / HTMI cables, and connectors, etc and all is not something I undertstand at all.

The computer is about 10-15 feet from the screen.

Please let me know what to do. I need your help!
