Surround Sound Into PC Problems

Hi guys

I've recently purchased a Bush 5.1 surround system off my girlfriend for use with a TV that I'm ordering but in the meantime I was hoping to set up the surround sound to use with my PC

I haven't yet aqquired the TV RCA cable from my girlfriend but I do already have a PC to sub woofer cable (Jack > 2 RCA) which I use to power my 2.1 system.

My surround sound Subwoofer has 6 input slots...Front (left & right) Sub (left and right) Surround (left and right) and because I only have 2 RCA plugs on the end of my cable I'm only able to power 2 speakers at once depending on which slots I pick...

What do I need to buy to sort this? I can't seem to find any computer jacks that lead to 6RCA pins...

Thanks in advance

**EDIT

After further looking I think I may have to buy another 2x (jack > 2RCA) and use all the slots on my sound card. Does that sound about right??

I'm using RealTek onboard and it does show a diagram of each coloured shot and it's function to each speaker. I think we're getting somewhere...
