ye like tittle says i tryed to put my pc on my lcd full hd but when i tryed to listing to music or going into wow i dont have sound how do i fix this i went back to my tft for the moment
 
how does connecting a new monitor make you loose sound? really should check the speakers and other cables to see if there plugged in correctly
 
Are you using HDMI to connect your PC to your TV, or an analog VGA? If the latter, you have to also output the sound from your soundcard to the TV as well, because VGA only does video. If you are using HDMI, you have to adjust your sound settings on your PC to output via HDMI.
 
i have bought a sound cable that should give me sound installed it on tv to pc but dont worked neither i used a dvi cable my tv has hdmi 4 and dvi but my pc doesend has hdmi my card
 
Try a 3.5 jack from your pc headphone socket to your tv.
You might need an adapter to fit it to your tv though
 
it so annoying i readed on google that lots of people have problems with sound they try to put their pc to their lcd but no sound
 
You will need to send separate analog audio to your TV in order to play sound out TV speakers. You will likely need one of these Amazon.com: 6FT 3.5mm Mini Plug to RCA Hook Computer To Stereo 6 FT: Electronics . But if your TV supports a DVI input then it is likely that it has a 3.5 inch input audio jack just for the purpose of what you are doing. If that is the case you will need one of these http://www.amazon.com/Cables-Unlimi...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1297792773&sr=1-1

EDIT: Give us the make and model of your TV for a definitive answer.

Depending on your operating system, you'll need to set the HDMI / Displayport as your sound output device(instead of speakers, headphones, etc) via Control Panel, if you're not using HDMI or Displayport, you won't be able to get sound out of the TV without special configuration, which may vary depending on your PC/Soundcard and the model of TV you purchased.

VGA = Usually a cable with a blue connector, no audio
DVI = Usually a cable with a white connector, no audio
 
My HD TV is a Panasonic and it has 7 inputs for video. 3 HD, 2 Component, and 2 Std. Video. If you are using and HDMI cable from the computer to the TV and your PC doesn't support audio via that cable look for the RCA plug audio connect ports on your TV. One will always be Red and one will always be White. Each non-HDMI input will have either a Yellow input for video or Blue Green Red for component video. Some TV's have a master or main audio Input, most don't. If yours does you're in luck. Get a cable that is 3.5mm male stereo on one end a two male RCA plugs, one Red, one White on the other end. Attach the 3.5mm stereo plug to the light green plug on your PC sound card and the Red and White RCA plugs to the Red and White Master/Main audio input. If your TV doesn't have a Master/Main input and your PC doesn't support HDMI audio then you can't use the HD cable and you need an adapter cable to covert HDMI from your video card to the component video and audio on your TV (it will still do 1080p) .

Like these cables:

HDMI to 5 RCA Audio Video AV Cable Converter for HDTV - eBay (item 130336128049 end time Mar-02-11 23:39:53 PST)

or...

PS3 Component Video Cable-GAM-1100 at Cables4computer

These cables assume you have an HDMI output on your video card which you sort of implied in your detailed description.. :)
