Default Help Needeed! HDTV problem.

Hi people.

Just to let you know I'm new here. This is my first post so I would like to say hello to everyone.

I have a quite a problem which I'm trying to solve. Perhaps someone had this issue already and the question was answered.

So... Here is my problem.

I have a Dell Dimension 2.8Ghz, Pentium D with dual core. 2GB of RAM and 256MB Nvidia Video Card. I'm trying to connect this to a 46' Sony Bravia KDL-46S2000 LCD HDTV. This was a success via the VGA port. Everything looks fine, but here is the problem. When I play DVD's, they are blurry like nothing I've ever seen before. I realized that VGA is analog transfer. My HDTV has an HDMI output and my PC also has a DVI output. SO... I ordered a DVI to HDMI Monster cable to see if that is the problem. Well... sad part is that I still haven't received the cable. But I'm asking, do you guys think this is the problem?

Another issue is that while connected via VGA when you open up a browser that has white backround and black writing, you can see some parts of the pixels flickering/flashing or whatever you can call it. Very weird. Any experience with this problem?

Your help would be appreaciated.
