HELP!!! - Error while opening sound device

[OzTef]

Hi All, I'm a newbie so forgive me but I have loaded audacity onto my PC which runs Winows XP ( ihave a fission USB turntable).
After loading i get the following message when trying to record:

Error while opening sound device.Please check the input device settings and the project sample rate.

Can anyone help me to be able to record my old vinyl??

Thnaks in advance.
