Hello. If you have a version of Windows Media Player 10 along with a soundcard already built into your computer you're halfway there! You will need a quality hi-fi lead to run from your hi-fi system to your computer soundcard. On most hi-fi systems,there will be a two jack-plug black and red line-out socket.On most computers,there will be a one jack-plug line-in socket. You will have to get a connection with two jack-plugs on one end running from your hi-fi system leading into one jack-plug on the other end leading into the computer soundcard. (I had mine made up.) You will have to read the instructions in Windows Media Player 10 Index to establish what connection you have to make to transfer the sound from your hi-fi to your computer. Usually,it is called "What-You-Hear". You will then have to play a track on your hi-fi and syncronise the sound from it which can usually be done automatically by the computer. Once this has been done,you will have to play and copy it in real time - i.e. you will have to listen to each track.If your MD lasts 40 minutes,you will have to listen to it for 40 minutes. Once you have made a copy of each individual track onto the computer, you will have to give it a file name such as "Rihanna" as the artist and "Umbrella" as the song title. This will have to be done for each individual track you do. I suggest you copy each track in 192Kbps which is hi-fi quality and make sure your Digital Rights Management (DRM) is turned off in the Windows Media Player 10. 192Kbps is hi-fi quality and takes up a lot of disc space. You may also find it helpful to have with you someone who has a reasonable knowledge of Windows Media Players as this will be of enormous help. Once you have copied your mini-discs over in real time,you can then copy them onto an mp3 player or onto a cd at computer speeds.I do hope I've explained this as best I can and good luck with your copying!
