You'd need an HDMI to DVI lead and then seperate cables for the audio.

Just a simple HDMI-to-DVI cable AND a seperate audio cable (depends on the specifics of your DVD player and TV, but either a digital or normal phono red/white). Is your DVI input HDCP compatible (not that I think it will be a problem with SD DVD's but thought I would ask just in case!)

By the way ... an interesting mix of no punctuation, but Excessive Capitals!

EDIT - must stop getting distracted when typing replies and then find out that the same has already been posted by someone else.

Just search for an HDMI to DVI cable. I imagine typing HDMI and DVI in the relevant section of ebay will give pretty good results

It needs to be HDMI to DVI.
