Take a look at the Yamaha 5.1s or the Logitechs. I have heard both, they both sound great (not as good as the Klipsch but good). if you don't at least have a Sound Blaster Live! series card I'd upgrade (sound card).

I've got the Logitech's. They're AMAZING. The easily rival the Klipsch, and for a hundred bucks or so cheaper!

for a sound card, i have seen many awesome reviews for the SonicFury (Turtle Beach) sound card - I hear it works a damn sight better in WinXP than any SB Live card too (which is a bit crappy cuz I got an SB Live lol)

Stick with SB Live! or upgrade to the SB Audigy Card. You will be a lot happier. As for speakers, go with the Logitechs!!!
