I don't have a link to the article but the trick to configuring Soundsotrm is to have a copy of both manuals. One from the Motherboard and one from the Speaker set. I just set up a NF7-S with a set of Logitech Z-5300 and had a bear of a time.
Seriously use the manuals. They will save u a million years of aggrivation.
NOTE:
Keep in mind that if u setup a 5.1 speaker setup u will hear nothing outta the other speakers if the Media or software u are using doens't support them. I found this out when I went to watch a dvd and was informed that my version of PowerDVD didn't include anything beyond 2.0 speaker support.

If u went through the link and followed it to the FAQ it will tell u what inputs are what for the speakers. Compare this to the Manual for the NF7-s and u are golden
Smiple answer is that the Green goes to green, the Orange speaker to the black jack and the black jack into the red mic jack. Believe it or not u can actually configure your sound from the "Sound and Audio Devices" in the Control Panel. Go to the Volume tab -> Speaker settings -> Advanced button ->choose your setup from the Speaker setup dropbox. Then back to the Volume tab -> Device Volume -> Advanced Button -> then on the Master Volume click Advanced button and check "Center speaker and Subwoofer are connected to Microphone. APPLY and BLAMMO! u are done.

Wrong. For some reason the outputs aren't coded properly for most speaker systems on the nf7-s. Put the black miniplug in the orange socket and the orange miniplug in the black socket. That will fix your center/rear problem. Promise.
