5.1 to the PC requires a good sound card a collection of relatively cheap speakers that come with a subwoofer. You can look into Boston Accoustics and JBL for some of those. If you are buying the soundcard and the speaker set pay attention to the setup of the soundcard (set as digital outputs for the better speaker sets) otherwise you will not get any sound out.

Now If you are watching TV from your computer you can get a better TV card that can connect to your satellite/Cable box and let you do what you are asking for.
