Guitar, in general do not need Phantom power, and direct line in will most likely do. Open the windows sound card applet, the little speaker icon in the lower right hand system tray, and make sure line in is active, and the volume is up.

A small mixer would help, and or an interface. These give you a place to mix the tracks so as to monitor them as they are added.
