You need to confirm that your MB supports Digital Audio
For some reason, Asus does not list these products on their site, not sure why. You need to validate that your MB has jumpers to connect to the device that I used. If it is, it should be in the original documentation/setup guide. The connector on my MB is a 5 pin (actually six with one blank in the middle), and is located right next to the jumper/connectors for the CD/DVD audio. Not sure if it would be in the same place for you.
The device didn't come with any documentation, but once I determined that the pins were a match, and that it was manufactured by Asus, I figured it was worth a $14 investment to find out.
Since you mentioned that it was an older MB, I am not sure that you will be as lucky.
