Answer 1

Make sure you are using a 3.5mm male to male stereo cable, connect 1 end to the output of the cassette player, either line out or headphones, and connect the other end into your pc either line in or mic, then you have to make sure that you have the right recording control selected in your sound settings...

eg. if you plug your cable into the line in socket, go into START-> SETTINGS -> CONTROL PANEL , open up sounds and audio devices, click on options then properties, select recording, click on ok, then make sure you have line in at the selected recording control. and adjust the volume accordingly.

then retry your application recording to see if you get any sound.

I don't know about Nero sound trax specifically, but these are the general steps you should follow:
Put simply, you will need to connect your cassette player to your PC soundcard, then play the cassette whilst recording on your PC. A step-by-step guide is available at:

The recording software is the key, there are some free software downloads available at:

I have used ‘Magix Audio Cleaning Lab’ and ‘Audacity’ – Audacity is particularly popular since it is free!
If you record to WAV format, expect file sizes of around 10MB per minute, or 1MB per minute for MP3 (at 128kbps).
Once you have your digital versions of the recording on your PC, simply burn them on to a CD (Nero burning software or similar..). If you use Magix Audio Cleaning, the software will burn an audio CD for you without needing additional software (assuming you have a CD writing drive of course!)
You can also download a free PDF version of the step-by–step guide from the download page mentioned above, the guide is complete with diagrams and screen-shots
Hope this helps
