Need help/advice on copying old records

I need to copy my records onto CDRs. I would have to do this using my
computer as I don't have a standalone cd burner. But I'm not exactly
sure how to do this. I've tried a google search but the directions
were a bit confusing and also seemed a bit more complicated than what
they probably should be.
Could someone give me some help or possibly direct me to a website
that can help? Mostly I need help on hooking up the turntable to the
computer. I'd hate to damage something by hooking it up wrong. Thanks.

In addition to the usual references - the CDR FAQ and the primer at my
WWW site - there is an excellent page from England linked from my site.

Any good cartridge will need a preamp before connecting to the computer
in order both to increase the signal level and to provide equalization.
Some turntables have the preamp built in, but most require external
hardware. Options including using a separate preamp or a stereo receiver
or buying or building a box for the purpose. There are even diagrams for
simple preamps among the files at my WWW site.

If you're familiar with audio recording, simply treat the computer as a
tape deck. If not, you would probably do best getting some help locally
from someone who is.

Isn't the info at CDR FAQ "quite dated" and has "significant" errors?

I've posted privately to Andy on the FAQ section.

It is quite dated ... and has significant errors

Chauvinism, perhaps, with regard to language, but certainly not racism.
Or do you consider there to be a French 'race'?

There are many sites with information, too many for me to try to track
down. A couple of years ago, The New York Times ran a substantial
article on recording audio to CD. The British site was one of three
recommended (the others were the FAQ and my primer). Out of curiosity, I
checked it out and agreed with their assessment. Therefore, I include it
when asked and highlight it in my page of links.

If you want to survey the WWW for others or to recommend one you find of
value, you are, of course, free to do so. Meanwhile, I ask that you
consider when suggesting 'racism' as a factor. The only 'race' to which
I object is the species of subhuman termed "troll".
