Advice needed in connecting racing wheel

Hello all, Iam trying to set up a sidewinder racing wheel on my Dell 5150. Wheel needs a socket that will take the nine pins on the plug, and the dell doesn't have this :mad: .
Am I on the right lines in thinking that I need to install a separate sound card as this dell only has on board sound? On my old Advent there was on the back the correct socket that had the words 'game & midi' on the metal plate where things like speakers were also plugged in. Do you get adapters/converters??????? Or am I completely on the wrong track with this, and if so perhaps the more savvy of you techies can point me in the right direction.:confused:
Many thanks in advance for your help.
