Yer welcome, Kat!

John - I have a Belkin memory stick, supposedly a good brand here in the UK, and it has died - fortunately with nothing of importance on it. I've had it around two years, so the warranty died with it!

PFR - you can buy inexpensive USB devices now that bypass the internal soundcard. I got one bundled with my Behringer Xenyx 1204 - it's called a UCA200, and has four phono sockets (RCA jacks across the pond!), L & R in and out, and a captive USB lead.

Here's the info...

Interesting that they include a link to the Audacity download!

Of course, if your PC is too old for USB, you're stuffed...!
