It might. Here is a response graph for a typical laptop sound card.

Here is an external USB soundcard’s response graph.

The Room EQ Wizard programs recommends the Soundblaster MP3+, Soundblaster Live! 24-bit USB External and the M-Audio MobilePre-USB as some good-quality sound cards (can’t say for sure, but presumable one of those is the graph above). I doubt you can go wrong with one of those. I've been happy with my MP3+ card, and it was only $30-40.
