Sound Card that plugs into SuperLanBoy headphone jack

So the SuperLanBoy has its own "standard" audio connector to hook up audio & mic directly to your sound card. My gf's onboard audio doesn't have this connector. What cheap sound card has this same connector? I'd like to get her front audio ports working. Thanks in advance
 
Strange that the onboard sound doesn't have the connectors since normally ONLY the onboard sound have them. The only sound card I can think of off hand with them is the Chaintech AV-710.

You sure the board doesn't have them? What brand/model?

i was thinking the same thing about the motherboard. does the 710 have them? i looked at a pic on newegg and i couldn't tell.
 
Yes, 710 does. Looking at the picture, see the pink rear jack? See the green and black internal CD audio inputs? Right in between them are a block of 2x5 pins with one missing, and two jumpers. Those are the front audio ports - even says so on the white text printed next to them on the PCB.
 
i see it now. my eyes must not be that good, i couldn't read the text. i didn't want to guess and make an uneducated suggestion tho, so i didn't. thanks for the clarification tho.
 
Hmmm, you guys might be right. Its an original Abit NF7-S and according to the manual there is one of those connectors; I just didn't see something that looked like it when I originally setup the system. Apparently there are jumpers over it to shunt audio to the back ports; it looks like you can only send audio one direction, which sucks I was hoping to have speakers on the back and headphones interrupt on the front when needed. I'll give that a shot and if it doesn't work I'll update. Thanks
 
It'll work fine as long as the front port wires have a "return" line, meaning both pins of each jumpered section has wires attached.
