Media center, ...no audio ??

I just hooked the cable TV line to the (factory installed) TV tuner in my Dimension 8400. Everything seemed to go smoothly, ...and I can view the video of the TV stations, ...however I get no audio.
  I'm sure this is a 'setting' somewhere, ...but does anyone know where?
 
  Thanks,
                 Kevin
 
  ...by the way, ...I can play a video (under Media center) and it plays fine, ...video AND audio. I will also mention that the cable TV coax is the only where hooked to the back of the system's tuner card. Do I need to connect audio cables there? (...in addition to the normal speakers)?

    I called Dell and got an answer (and solution) to the problem.
     
      For others out there that may encounter this problem,...The solution was to UNINSTALL any AOL programs. I don't use AOL, ...so it was an easy decision, ...and quick solution. The tech did indicate that this has been seen before, ...and the AOL uninstall solution was common.
     
      This tech also assisted with another problem I was having with the USB ports.  By entering set-up (F2) and changing the setting from "ON" to "NO BOOT", ...I've also eliminated the problems I posted on another thread.
