I hqve a set of Logitech X530 speakers which have 5 speakers and a sub. After moving apartment, I no longer have the two rear speakers, just front left, front right, center and the sub (they were wired into my apartment).

I have a Dell Alienware R3 with onboard sound and six outoputs (orange, green, pink, grey, blue and black). The sub has green, orange and black outputs. The green and orange are connected to their matching colours between the PC and subwoofer, but no matter where I plug in the black from the subwoofer, I have no sound from the front right channel. Is there a rule for what connects where?

Your PC's audio control panel will tell you what is connected where. It will also allow you to configure the operating mode (2.0, 2.1, 5.1, etc), though 3.1 is not usually an option.

It should also be able to generate test tones for each speaker.

It might be a good idea to swap the speakers around, to make sure that it's not the speaker or cable that isn't working.
