What inputs DOES you TV have? Are there RCA inputs on the TV, red, white and yellow that say input and not auxiliary out? Does you cable box have RCA outputs? That is the most common method for non-coaxial older style units. Newer units commonly use HDMI, DVI, Displayport or of course, coaxial.

Actually, the chances are pretty good if your television is a pre-cable model, with analog RCA inputs, that unless your cable box has digital to analog conversion built in, that you won't be able to use the service an may need to replace the TV. If your cable box does have conversion with RCA outputs, and your tv has RCA inputs, specifically, the yellow input for video and the red/white inputs for sound, you should be ok.

Alternatively, you can also get a separate converter box for just about any kind of cable input, be it HDMI, DVI, VGA, RCA or Displayport, with conversion to just about any kind of input you should need.
