Dummy grandma needs help


We moved and I'm trying to hook up the computer again. Got everything
going except the speakers. Boy, do I need help! At the back of the
speaker are two ports: line in and line out. To which port should I
plug in the terminal?

At the back of the tower (I have a Dell computer about 4 years old)
there are five ports: yellow, blue, salmon, green and black. The line
from my speakers to the computer is black but nothing happens when I
plug into any of the five.

Can one of you smart guys out there help this old 69-year old grandma?
I really, really would like to listen to Roy Orbison sing PRETTY WOMAN
and BLUE BAYOU again.

Thank you very much
