the I needed to go away and get a VGA cable to hook it up and that's what I did. Since I have alot of things around my TV (lots of computers things and electricity) I didnt want any sort of crosstalk (disturbance on the cable from other electrical devices- its quite rare now but not unheard of) I made sure that i got a double shielded wire, the best one of these that i could find was the BelkinPROseries.

Manufacturer's product description
They're never long enough. It almost makes it to my computer, but an inch in front of the plug I run out of cable. That's why I'm glad Belkin makes an extension cable to keep life simple.
