If you have a cut down version of cubaseor something....it'll probably let you use 24bit, 48khz......but dont get obsessed by these figures. Whats really important is that you have decent quality converters. If your on a real budget then I highly recommend either the Emu 0404 or Audiophile 24/96 sound cards for audio recording.

you can't say this, bit and khz will affect different sound "components":
more KHz = less aliasing
more dB = less digital noise (related to the amp of the sound)

so, you can sample at 44100 but you should put an anti aliasing (low pass filter) at the half freq (in this case 22 KHz) but not after the Digital conversion of the sound... so we should ask our audio device manufacturer if it has a filter related to the sampling frequency, if not you'll have aliasing.
The higher (in this case 48 ) KHz we will use the less liasing we will have, than converting, every software I know has an antialiasing plugin to digitally correct the problem when downgrading to 44100 ... 48KHz downgraded to 44100 after a aliasing filter is ALWAYS better than the straight 44100 recording.
