Hi All

I want to use my Samsung SM932 Monitor with my PS3 but i need sound.I can get the picture up no problems but the PS3 has no audio outputs.I dont want to spend a fortune on an audio system so was just wondering if there is a cheap solution.Usb speakers or headphones or something.

Any1 else have any ideas(I dont want to spend a fortune on a surround sound system)

Thanks

Ok so i gto my adapter and i now have sound when using my monitor now.
My monitor is a samsung syncmaster 932GW
The problem i have is.

Just wondering if any1 could help me.I am trying to use my monitor with my ps3 so i have unplugged my pc from it.When i start my ps3 up it says not at recommended settings 1440 by 900 at 60HZ i think.I can get rid of this by pressing a button on my monitor.
Was just seeing if there was an easier way to set it up properly.Ive looked through the monitor menus and cant see anywhere to change the resolution settings same with the ps3 menu.

Thanks

I think it is because im not using a native resolution.Thing is last time i hooked my ps3 up it never said that.It may be because the PC im using is bodged together and the GFX card isnt supported by win7 so its just using a standard adapter.Oh well im sure i can live with it.
Thanks
