OK then we are sure now you have the correct audio drivers for the built-in sound device.
Your Audacity audio device info does not show line in, only microphone and Stereo Mix.
I think the only way you might be able to improve things is to go into Windows Sound. Change to the "Recording" tab. Right-click anywhere inside the Recording tab and if available, choose "Show disabled devices" then right-click again and check "Show Disconnected Devices".
What devices do you see now. Mic, Line-in and Stereo Mix?
As I said before, to record from Stereo Mix, you will need to set the Line-In to "Listen to this device", so that it plays through the computer speakers. To do that you would right-click the Line-In, choose Properties, then click the "Listen" tab. Then restart Audacity and record from Stereo Mix.
Are you connecting the turntable directly to the computer input? If you want to record a conventional turntable it is better and simpler to attach its output to a phono amplifier then connect the amplifier to the computer. This gives you proper RIAA equalization at already amplified line level.
Does your cassette deck with USB output have a line input? If so, you could connect the turntable through a phono amplifier to the line input of the cassette deck and record from the cassette deck. Otherwise I think you may be better buying something like the Behringer UFO 202: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Recom ... Interfaces.
