These speakers will simulate a 5.1 surround sound experience from a stereo input. You could use the included cable (or perhaps a 3.5mm Stereo to RCA L/R Audio cable) to connect from your motherboard to these speakers.

The short answer is no. It does not support 5.1 surround sound.
The second port is likely a line in and/or mic port so that does not help you at all
Thus you are left with 1 port that provides 2 chanel audio.

You can get systems like suggested above that take your stereo and uses software/hardware to analyize the stereo sound and attempt to create 5.1 from it.

If the board has optical out or a HDMI port you can ouput digital audio to a stereo receiver.
