If you have a mini dv (cassette) camcorder….
Your dv camcorder needs a firewire connection (ieee 1394) in order to download video, your PC probably did not come with a firewire port, so you will have to buy one and install it, since most computers (except possibly brand new) don't come with a firewire port, your camcorder did not come with a firewire cord so you have to purchase a cord too. Your camcorder did come with a USB cord and that is used for downloading stills from your camcorder. Make sure your camera is in playback mode.
The fine print in your manual makes reference to firewire (ieee 1394) connection.

using your USB cable, plug it in2 ur computer, then turn it on, Computer sholud say device detected...then, a little screen should pop up saying open with..then it gives you a list of what to open the device with so u can view watever is on ur camera. The options include Windows Media player, my documents, media center, etc...then click whichever you prefer, and go from there...
