What software are you using. Adobe softwares have problem showing up Capture Devices that aren't on there list. By the way, what kind of camcorder are you using. If it supports firewire use it. It works better and you get better image quality.

The system restore could possibly have restored your system to a point prior to installation of the webcam. Try the following:\nPower down your pc.\nUnplug the webcam.\nReboot\nUninstall the webcam software and drivers, and if you know where it's folder is, delete that too.\nReboot\nReinstall the webcam's software and drivers, but don't connect the webcam untill it tells you to. (You may have to reboot again before you plug in the webcam)\n\nHopefully, this will work - if not, then yes, take the cam back and get a new one!

Well, if your camcorder has standard analog video output (yellow plug, white plug, and a red plug) then you actually need a program AND a special kind of adapter for your computer that will allow you to plug the camcorder into the adapter and then plug the adapter into the computer using a standard usb cable. Also, most adapters will come with software to capture off the camera and then save the capture as an avi, wmv, or other type of video file on your computer. Here are some links for some different adapters:\n\nhttp://www.ramelectronics.net/html/howto-pc-vcr.html\n\nhttp://www.usbgear.com/usa/USB_Video_capture.html\n\nhttp://www.pinnaclesys.com/PublicSite/us/Products/Consumer+Products/Home+Video/Dazzle/\n\nhttp://www.adaptec.com/worldwide/product/proddetail.html?sess=no&language=English+US&prodkey=AVC-2210&cat=%2fTechnology%2fVideo%2fVideo\n\n\nOn the other hand if you have a dv camcorder you don't need an adapter to tranfer video footage to your computer. What you would need though is a dv to usb cable which can be found at any major electronics retailer ( http://www.bestbuy.com , http://www.circuitcity.com , http://www.officemax.com , etc.) Or you can buy a dv cable online from a wide selection of different online stores or use http://www.froogle.com to find the cheapest one available. As far as programs go that can capture live vide, almost any movie editing program is capable of capturing video and you can even get free video editors off the web such as Microsoft Movie Editor 2 from http://www.microsoft.com

You need a software that will alow you to capture video from your camera (probably something came in a CD with your camera), or you can find them at download.com or tucows.com. Any of them will allow you to take snapshots, and some even have a timer.

I use the software FastCap to capture the video. It is better to let the video in full screen when recording and adjust the sliders in the "sound volume" when there is no sound being recorded.\n\nYou can download FastCap at http://www.ejoystudio.com

If your computer is fairly new, chances are it came with a built-in firewire port. If not, your likelihood of getting the video onto your PC quickly go down a bit. You can always get a firewire PCI card installed into the machine.  You would also need a firewire cable to go from the camcorder to the PC.\n\nSeeing as how you rented the camcorder, did they possibly give you any software for the PC? If not, then that presents another obstacle to your goal. Office programs will not assist you with getting video to your PC. If you have the software for the camcorder, it should have some type of video editing software with it. If not, and the PC is fairly new, then you might have a freebie program called Windows Movie Maker included with your PC, which should get the basics done for you.

Time to buy a Digital Video Camcorder. It's a US$500 -$1,500 solution.\n\nYou have not clarified exactly what kind of Video System you have. Even if you have a clunky video tape-based Video Camera you should be able to tape something!\n\nThe cheapest way to record video? Try your mpeg capable video/camera phone!

Check your cables, maybe it is not properly connected.  Did you installed the software that came with your camera to your computer?
