    Hello,

    I have an Inspiron 1520 which I am still finding my way around.
    It came with a copy of CD Creator 9 so I thought I would convert some of my analogue recordings to digital.
    I seem to have 2 audio connections 1 for a microphone and 1 for headphones.
    Now I do not think I should use the microphone input because my signal from the tape deck would be too strong.
    Can anyone please advise me.
    Also appreciate any help or advice on using CDCreator to perform this task.

    Many thanks,
    Mike
