All you need is

1) a sound card that can take either a stereo mini-jack to plug into
line-in.  Or a good sound card that can take L + R RCA plugs.

2) any decent Hi-fi system that has a turn-table input.

3) connect the stereo output from our amp (out of cassett/tape deck)
to your sound card using either Stereo mini-jack to L+R RCA cable (or
RCA-RCA if you have a good sound card)

4) Record the line-in from your sound card as a wav file.  You
probable have some simple software which came with your card to enable
you to do this.  Alternatively a program like Musicmatch Jukebox (full
version) can record from the line-in to multiple formats (wav, mp3,
mp3Pro, WMA), open recorder, right click "RECORDER" select format
(change to what you want, wav if you have the disk space), select
source "line-in".  Roxio EasyCD creator (full version) you can use
spin doctor which will record from Line-in and delete some pops and
hiss automatically.  Edit the wav file with the wav editor to remove
unwanted bits.  Nero probably has something similar, but I have not
explored this.

5) Burn/convert wav (or mp3) files directly to CD using one of the
above programs.
