Monitor or TV?

No, I do use 2 small speakers and the subwoofer but the big bunch of cables are wired together so I can't just take the green one and plug it into the monitor, there is no space to do that with the cable.

So the cable I linked before will work right? as in connecting the Xbox 360 audio adapter with the cable then plugging it in the microphone connector on the computer.

Sorry for confusing you mate!

I don't understand.

With your current arrangement - the black and orange cables are not needed. Hence you can unplug all these cables from the PC and just plug in the green one into the monitor - with the green and orange connections dangling down unconnected.

You can test this out by unplugging both the black and orange connectors from your PC (leaving the green one connected) and play some music. You will be able to hear/feel than both two front-side speakers are working as well as the subwoofer.

Man I didn't know that! I've literally just plugged all of those cables in every computer I've owned since I've had these speakers. So that way will work now, sorry about that, embarassing!

But for some reason I can't hear any sound when I plug the green cable into the green audio in connector on my current monitor? is that because my monitor is connected via VGA right now? But when I connect the new monitor to my computer via HDMI the sound will work when I plug the green cable into the audio in on the monitor since HDMI carries audio & video and the VGA just carries video or am I wrong haha

Aye, VGA doesn't carry audio (neither does DVI) - but HDMI does. So when you use the HDMI connection and plug the speakers into the Audio-out on the monitor it will work.
