want to record daughter playing instrument onto PC....how???

My daughter would like to record herself playing her flute onto the computer
so she can make CD's to give to family members at Christmastime. Other than
a microphone hooked to the sound card, what's the best way in Windows XP to
record her playing so she can then make CD's? I don't have any special
programs to capture it, other than what is readily available in the Operating
System. I realize it won't sound "professional", but it should be better
than playing into an ordinary tape recorder.
hanks for any advice.

Use a program like Audacity or Musicmatch Jukebox.Windows XP only has the
ancient soundrec program which is pretty poor. There are endless alternates
if you google for "recording software".

Note that this artice implies you need additional hardware for recording
(like the Nomad or Minidisc). You could just record directly into your
computer.

Try your recording using an audio recording and converting software.
Suggests FlexiMusic Wave Editor. Record your daughter playing flute in this
software then save the recordings in the format of wav file, then convert
the wav file as Mp3 using "Save As" command and now burn in CD.
