Hi Jolen98!

Unfortunately you cannot hook two different sets of computer speakers together to make them work as you would adding new speakers to a home entertainment system. You need to have all the speakers, in your case 4 speakers and a sub, from the same package for them to work. I suggest you return the speakers you just bought and buy a whole 4.1 speaker set. It's the only way they are going to work.

Nope, you can't. You can set them up by themselves and they will work as you already know, but since you only have one spot to plug your speakers into, you can only have one set of speakers.
