    Which model is it?

    I see the specs on one version and it had a USB. I don't know if that'll do audio - but it might.

    If the USB does audio. It might be a case of installing software from CASIO - and then that will make the CASIO act like a sound card when it's connected to your computer........But it might not work like that.

    What's the precise model?

    Do you have a copy of the manual - if you have it in PDF or a link to it. Post the manual here - I'll have a look at it. Or someone else will be able to tell you.

    Left and right outputs from the back of the Casio on large jack plugs, input to computer on minijack. You'll get a cable in Maplins. Assuming you don't have an external audio interface.

    Reaper is a lot better than Audacity though. Gives you the added flexibility of MIDI.

    There's a CD that should have come with the piano. That has the driver software - you need to install the driver before the USB connection will work.

    There's also some CASIO software on the CD that for use with the piano.

    It looks like proprietary software, so it's only for that CASIO piano.

    I bought the piano secondhand and never got a CD :( Anyone know where I could get this CD or anywhere to download the drivers?

    Try CASIO support. You should be able to download an image of the CD, you can burn straight onto the CD.

    Or if you know what you're doing - which I don't think you do - download the bits you need from CASIO.

    CASIO have a support forum - and they might have a number too. They'd probably be happy to post you a CD.
