Question by Sagnik D: Can you connect a 6-channel surround sound system to a laptop?
Is there any way to connect 3 stereo-mini connectors for 6-channel speaker system, to my laptop. I normally use just the green cable to connect it, but I want to hook up my surround sound. So I have a yellow and black cable as well. And I was wondering if there was any external device that could connect all of them to my audio port.

No. Surround sound are mostly in 5.1 and some blu ray disc movies have a 7.1 surround sound. They are coded in either Dolby Digital or DTS. To be able to play the surround sound material you need a decoder, and they are usually found in a receiver, home theater in a box or a preamp. I have not seen any Lop Top computer with either a Dolby or DTS logo. Hope this will help you out.
