You need a male/male audio cable to run from your tape player to the mic or line-in port on your sound card.

Note the size of the ports (RCA vs 2.5mm headphone jack), as you will probably need an adapter. There is lots of software that can record it for you. Search Google for software.

You can order the cable online from Radio Shack.

Hello, I have done exactly what you asked without spending any money.

My computer came with speakers that were connected with an audio cable. The cable fit into the "line-in" (don't use "mic") on my computer's sound card and into the "line-out" on my stero/tape player.

I used RealJukebox 2.0 do to recording. I think the newest version got lacks this feature, but you can get it from http://www.oldversion.com/program.php?n=rjukebox
On the tools menu, there was an option to record from line in. I simply turned on the stereo and started recording in real time. You can record in wav or mp3 format....it shouldn't matter *too* much. WAV is better but takes about 10 MB per minute of audio! MP3 is one-tenth the size (Tools / Preferences / AudioQualitiy lets you adjust this)

Finally, you (obviously) need a CD burner with software.

Hope this helps!

Another important note: Make sure "line in" is selected for recording.

Open your volume control (double click the tray icon or run "sndvol32.exe" Click the options menu, properties, then select "recording" OK

Check the check-box for line in. Adjust volume as needed.
