Hello,

I've sprung for the Vizio VX37L 37" LCD TV from Circuit City. Got it for $774 w/ a $25 dollar coupon that I had laying around taken off the regular price...

My intentions are to get a wall mount and mount it to my bedroom wall.

Right now all I have is regular Dish Network Digital Satellite and at this time have no intentions of upgrading to Dish Network HD service.

I will however be trying OTA HD TV thru my local television stations.

So saying this here is what I'm wanting to do and I hope you can help me accomplish it.

Hook up my computer to the Television: Which Cable?
Hook up the Television Audio to the current computer sound system: Which Cable?
Hook up my Dish Network DVR Box to my Vizio TV ( Using the standard F Plug Connector )

Is there anything else I need or what.

I'm sorry I'm a total noobie when it comes to this stuff.
 
Computer to Television, depends on your computer

I have a EVGA 6800GS w/ DVI and a Regular VGA so either one I guess would work

TV audio to computer sound, depends on your computer
I have a 7.1 Sound Card with a Line In and Microphone In Hole

Dish DVR to TV, F plug is the worst option, look for Component or at least SVideo. I suppose you dont have HDMI or DVI outputs on the SD Dish DVR.

I'm not sure. I have the DVR625 Box so I'm not sure what I have.

The only issue that I have there is its probably 25 feet of cable going to be needed because the DVR is in the living room and I'm mounting this TV in my bedroom right down the hall?

My current DVR box only has that I can see a F Plug Out or a S Video Out from the box - Nothing else.

Here is a S-Video Cable... Would this work:
