I'm guessing your question means "Where about is the sound card situated in a computer?"
If so.. It can be either integrated into your motherboard or external and be in one of your pci slots on your motherboard.

I assume you're asking "how do I know what kind of motherboard I have" and not the usually much easier "which part in the computer is the motherboard" (it's almost certainly the biggest circuit board in there).
The only sure one I know of is to look for the manufacturer's name and model number silkscreened onto the board somewhere.
Alternatively, if it's hooked up and working, the power-on self-test may tell you, though sometimes these are a little more vague than might be hoped (for example, while it's likely to tell you the manufacturer and possibly the model, it may or may not specify the particular revision).
Computer hardware basically refers to the physical aspects of the computer; the computer parts that are tangible and can be touched. For instance monitor, mouse, key board, processor, printer, audio speakers etc. it also involves the cables, connectors and power supply units.
Computer hardware directly involves all the equipment that is needed in processing of data .

The standard CD is two-channel 16-bit PCM encoding at a 44.1 kHz sampling rate per channel.
The main way to tell which expansion card is the video card is to look at the plug. If it has a VGA socket, a display port socket, HDMI, etc., then you will know it is a video card. You may identify some of the chips on the card as being RAM, or you might find a fan on it, but these features are not exclusive to video cards. If that is the place where you plug your monitor, then it is a video card, unless of course you are plugging directly into the motherboard.
Figure out what you will need the card for first, and then research different cards' specs before buying.
But remember it's better to have one that is too good, than not good enough!
"The sampling rate of a sound card, which is the number of samples taken of the analog signal over a period of time, is usually expressed as samples (cycles) per second, or hertz (Hz)."

what do the plugs look like that would normally plug into your TV? (I am assuming there are just two cords, one red, one white)
No. Sound cards are pieces of hardware. You can't download one any more than you could download a new car. You can, however, download a driver for your existing sound card, as long as you know its make and model.
Insert the sound card. Access the Part mode, and move cursor to I (for internal sounds). Change that to card. Move cursor to the right, and use inc/dec. to the NUMBER ON THE FACE OF THE CARD. That is, card SN-U110-11 would be 11 in the display, and then you will hear the sounds. Each card has a distinctive number 1 - 15 on its face, and regardless of which slot you plug the card into, you must choose the CARD's FACE NUMBER identity. You can then access all the sounds. If you have four cards installed, you can access any of them by choosing its Roland identity number on the face of the card (1 - 15). You can make multitimbral patches up to 6 midi channels and mix/match from any of the 4 cards and the internal sounds, and save these patches with a name you give (perhaps the song title?). For them to play correctly, however, you must have the same cards installed in the device for the sounds to play.
Go to Toshiba's website. (google it).
Look for the tabs at the top that say 'Support' and navigate to ' Downloads' to see if they still support your computer. You may need to go to archive support for older machines.
Tosh are generally quite good and provide good support for their computers.
It is possible to make sound work on Safe Mode.
This has been tested and functioning properly on an Acer Aspire desktop. This workaround may not work with Windows XP.
Lots of ports aren't found on sound cards. Examples include Ethernet, RJ-11 (telephone), USB, FireWire, USB, and typically serial or parallel ports.
As far as I can tell it lets you hear the sounds you computer produces. Personal experience makes me think that (when I was without one I couldn't hear anything), but I could be completely wrong. Just trying to help. :)
Locate the connector where the CRT plugs in. If it plugs in to a separate card, that's the graphics card. If it plugs in directly to the motherboard then the graphics card is integral to the motherboard.

Sound Card
A sound card is an expansion card which is used to send and recieve the sound signals and installed in a PCI slot of the motherboard.
Graphics Card
Graphics cards are the video cards which are used to produce the images you see on a monitor screen and it is installed on the motherboard as an extra component and used to graphical data with a high quality colour display and clear appearance.
