Having a few problems here setting up what i want.

Ok so what i have is a ASUS P5Q SE/R Motherboard in my windows Vista computer. What i need to do is configure my input playback to play through my computers 5.1 surrond sound speakers.

Basically i need to turn http://img377.imageshack.us/img377/2727/thisintothis.jpg

Im trying to input 5.1 surround sound using 3x coaxial 3.5mm inputs (it should be possible) in much the same way as they are being outputed.
what i need to do is seperate the input channels from the 3x coaxial 3.5mm and send them to the appropriate 5.1 surround sound channels.

xbox is working all 5.1 channels are going to the computer and are playing back but not on the correct channel. the link on the first post gives a pretty good idea of i what i mean, it is very hard to explain, ill draw another picture if this still doesnt make any sense

I shouldn't need any additional hardware, just a bit of software to redirect those audio channels is all i need
Here is the setup so you get a better idea of what im after
