Capture quality

Ive got two questions.

When I connect my camera my computer and on the playback mode the computer
detects the camera, when i open WMM and click 'capture' everything acts real
slow it takes about 5 minutes for the first window to appear about capturing,
then when i disconnect the camera everything goes back to the usual speed.
What can i do so the computer acts fast when capturing video?

Also on my other computer i capture video, this time it doesnt slow down
like the other computer but the quality of the video is really bad, its all
pixilated. I think it drops frames or something like that. Any help would be
great.

Thanks.

Pixelation is not down to dropped frames. Is the video pixelated on the cam
screen? If not then it could be a poor connection or other things going on
in the background, the type of file you save it as. Check out the above page
plus this one and capture and save as a dv-avi file.
