just bought x-530 5.1 surround sound logitech speakers for my computer. Realized i didn't have a 5.1 sound card. Bought one. Put it into PCI slot, loaded the drivers. But nothing. I check the card and there are lots of "needles" that look like they need somethign plugged into them. I have one white little "box" structure that looks like you plug in a really small... ide cable is it? And i had two needles with safety protecters and above it it said something about a subwofer. I want to know what kind of cables i need with this to make these work, i have none to fit the :box: and it came with no cables. Is this simply that my motherboard does not support them? How do i know? I am confused.

i have an audio excel pci 6 channel sound card. My speakers are x-530 surround sound logitech speakers. Both 5.1
