According to this the acer has no tvfittedAcer 5600 Unless you mean you had a card fitted in which case you should see the coax socket

If you have a tv tuner there will be a coax socket as on a TV. If not you can buy a tiny USB TV tuner for about £30.

I ACTUALLY HAVE A PACKARD BELL ONE TWO WHICH I HAD PREVIOUSLEY ASKED ABOUT BEFORE BUT HAD NO LUCK,HOWEVER I NOTICED THAT TH ACER HAD THE SAME CONNECTION WHEN I SAW IT IN STAPLES. IT IS DEFINATELY NOT A COAX CONNECTION WHAT I NEED IS A CONNECTOR WITH ACOAX AT ONE END.

Both systems have an esata connection on the back but not TV in. Are you sure that you have identified the ports correctly.
