Hope this doesn't come too late, but, depends on outputs of your deck and inputs on sound card some possiblities..
rca L R out of deck to L R rca to miniplug cable to miniplug line in on computer adjust the volume with start menu accesories multimedia volume levels

if you are balanced coming out of the tape machine and don't have balanced ins on the computer you'll need a very high quality line level transformer to bring it from +4dbv to -10dbu any wuestion keep em coming...
 
If it's not clear, after you do what SilentSound said about the hookups, just use any wav recording program to record the audio and save it as a wav file on the computer. Then use any MP3 creation utility to make the MP3. Lots of applications are available for download to do both those things. Search the BBS for specific names and what people recommend.
