Hi Ed,

You'll need a video graphics card with the video and audio jacks.

And once you have acquired the required hardware, use the Windows Movie
maker software to capture video from a VCR or an analog camcorder:

this is not needed, because most of the TV cards come with their own
software to record video

you'd need a TV tuner card or a video card that supported video input from
a TV/VCR (eg Firewire port or similar).
