There is enough information amongst previous answers - if you can sort the wheat from the chaff.
However, put more succinctly, you have to connect an output from the cassette player, either "Line output" or the earphone output to the computer's "Line input."
If the cassette player has both of those outputs it is much better to use the "Line output" otherwise you will have to experiment with the player's volume control to find an acceptable setting.
To do this you will need a 3.5mm to 3.5mm stereo jack lead.
If you haven't already got suitable software you can download "Audacity" from http://www.download.com/Audacity/3000-2170_4-10514927.html?tag=lst-0-1 (it's free.)
This will allow you to save your cassette recordings to a file on the p.c. and then transfer them to c.d.

Cassette player with a line-out, plugged into your computer's line-in with a 1/8" headphone jack cable. Download a simple sound recording program that you can find for free. Then you can play the cassette player, and hit record on the program and transfer those sound files into mp3, wav, acc, whatever format you want. Once you have that burn them on a disc, and viola your done! Goodluck!

Get an adapter to plug into the headphone plug of the cassette player to the computer sound input jack. Use a program to record the music as you play it. Then use an audio editing program. Then burn to CD.

you need software that records wave files. input the cassette to the computer and record the wave files. you could put the wave files on a CD or convert them to mp3 and put them on a CD.
considering the incredible amount of hiss, are you sure this is a viable solution?

ABove answers miss one point.
what you do is:
output cable from your cassete go into
input hole behind your PC ( pink one)
then open your sound recorder( start/ all programs /accessories/sound recorder)
then press red button to record, pree again to spause, while you play song from your cassete. But you must click on menu bar (effect, increase ...) at every 60 seconds bcoz that recorder can record up to 60 sec only. so you must timely increase at around 57-58 sec / 117-118 sec...and you can record the whole song.
then you save as...give a name... then this wave file can be converted to mp3...etc with a software
