Cant make my mind up?

Some help please

On which one to get out of these.

Now I will be doing a lot of recording from tape to pc because I am fed up of doing tape to CD then CD to PC. I know I can just shove my tape straight to the PC but I don't have a dedicated sound card anymore so going via the onboard isn't has good has it used to be.

I've been looking at these products, which have got to work with Vista 64bit.

I really doubt the quality of your onboard is going to limit the quality of tape transfers. Just make sure you've got all your levels right or it's going to clip, set your input on the PC to line-level and connect it to the line out of your tape deck. If you have to use a headphone out then adjust the input gain accordingly.
