Installed Nvidia card, now my Handicam won't capture properly

OK, this is frustrating.

A couple years ago, I bought a Sony Handicam. It came with Pixela image mixer software and USB drivers. I installed them on my comp (512 RAM, 1.6 Ghz processor), and everything worked just fine until recently.

The trouble started when I installed an Nvidia GeForce 4 video card. My comp has a Savage onboard card, which I disabled, in order to install the new card. Every other program works fine with the new card, except the Video capture (cam to computer) program on the Pixela.

When I go to capture video from the cam, it's all "herky jerky", and the sound is out of synch. Completely unusable crap. I connect comp to cam using regular USB cable. Remember, it worked fine until I installed the "better" graphics card.

So, has anyone else had this problem, or know what I can do about it? Are there better programs I can try for video capture? The cool thing about the Pixela is that you can completely control the cam with the mouse. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated
