    If you wish to take audio into your computer from the mic then you'll need an audio interface that has mic inputs + phantom power. That will be easy to source. Pretty much any music store can help you there.

    Take a look at this for some background info http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/nov04/articles/pcmusician.htm

    If you require recommendations then give us an idea of budget once you understand what you are loking for and folks will be glad to help out.

    Or take it back to Waltons and change it for a USB microphone. Much easier, and cheaper than getting another box.
