Hi Ian, thanks for the quick reply. Strange thing, when I activate the import, the screen takes a while to load, sometimes it does highlight the DV icon, and after a while does start the capture, but iut is not every time, and certainly is very sluggish in operating. I left the capture operation going last night and it froze several times, but has actaully downloaded my first 1 hour tape. When I play it back in edit, there are brief flashes of broken picture but it has actually captured the tape. It is not a smooth operation, but when it first loads then the edit suite gets in fairly smartly and loads in full. It plays back the demo video and the transition work. The problem is that my Pc does not recognise the DV camera, even when I use the JVC installation disc, it says it is not the correct one. JVC insist this is the installation disc. When the instructions appear on installing the image mixer, there is a code to intall g 5.6 or similar and when I first tried I got error 432 uninstallShield active close it. This has been a vrey frustrating time, never had this before. Thanks for any light you can shed. I have just assumed the driver must be missing.
