You wont get sound mate, Only picture. But if you have a set of speakers set up through your pc there isnt really an issue there.

hdmi cable is the best if supported

most lcd and plasma also have pc input so you can use pc out on pc ie blue 19 or 24 pin direct to plasma, then use a 3.5mm jack from audio output on pc to a 2 x phono and shove that to the audio input on the lcd.

If you want surround sound, use a DVI cable as mentioned above and use SPDIF as your audio source (if your PC and surround kit support it).
