Camcorder

Hi all! Does anyone know of any good software for dragging footage off a digital camorder to a pc? On the inlaws pc, all i have to do is plug the camcorder in, switch it on and xp recognises it. My compaq doesnt for somereason. thanks in advance

Adobe Premier? :)

I use a fairly cheap programme called Roxio Easy Media Creator, which works very well, and will burn to DVD in almost any format you can think of! Windows Media Player Version 7.o (free download) should work as well, but I'm not sure if it will burn DVDs in a format read by a DVD player. I know the earlier Windows Media players would only burn in a format read by Windows (surpries!)

iv always had alot of problems with nero myself yet my farther in law swears by it
