On page 2 of the manual it says that all of the speakers plug into the subwoofer, then the subwoofer is pluged into an ac power supply, then # 4. on page 2 of the diagram shows that the Audio input cable to your PC is the green, black & orange plugs!!!!! YAY!!!
If you do not have a Dolby 5.1 sound card with green black and orange plugs, you will have to buy one. The can be had for a little as $15....
Thanks,

Hi,
If you search the lower base sides of your laptop you'll find two circular sockets, one with the symbol of mic and other with that of a headset speakers. Plug in to the second one and there you go :)

Hi there stormy,

Regarding the compatibility of your speakers, I know for a fact that the HP Pavilion Slimlne s5380t is integrated with Intel HD audio 7.1 surround sound.

This means that it has the capacity to handle 2 speaker stereo or 2.1 speakers, your 5.1 surroud sound & for the home theatre experience it is also capable of handling 7.1 surround sound.

I hope that you get on well with your neighbours, ha.

kindest regards,

Ste.
