I'd imagine your computer is capable already- if it has a microphone jack on the back of the computer (usually pink colored).

There are lots of softwares to do this (Nero, for example) but for simple voice recording all you need to do is plug your mic into the computer, and then go to:

Start Menu->Programs->Accessories->Entertainment->Sound Recorder

Will do the job.

HTH.
