You should not go through USB, but through a Firewire connection. And if you do, you don't need drivers. Just connect the camera and it will be recognized.

If it was not supplied with your camera, yes.
You need a Firewire cable and you're PC of course needs to have a Firewire connection.

I'm new to this,so forgive my ignorance about this!
I do have a 1394 bus host but dont want to buy any new cables at the moment.
I've just got the usb cable and have had a bit of luck...the compter recognises the new hardware but when i use the program(pixela image mixer)it say "check mode set on camera and confirm connection with computer"
also i seem to have 6 usb jacks/slots 2 at the front 4 at the back
which should i use?
every time i put the cable into a new jack/slot windows want to install new hardware.
anyone????????

I forgive your ignorance if you follow my advice: get yourself a Firewire cable.
It is a question if you can stream video from tape to your PC over USB. If you can it will only be preview quality: low resolution, terrible image, not even worth watching.
A firewire cable costs $10...

Its funny because i've just registered to that web site...great btw

I succeeded transfering video to pc with the firewire cable,but had problems with the quality using pixela image mixer-it transfered 24 mins of video into a size of 500 mb,which i thought was very strange cause what i read was it was going to take maybe 4 gb per 20 mins of video.
So i downloaded dvio and transfered 40 mins of video(9 gb)of great quality!!

thx for the help TPFKAS
