but what is a good Video Capture Card... that doesn't cost to much.

    Depends, hugely, on the quality you want.

    Composite is going to be the cheapest. However, there are umpteen million capture cards around.

    My initial thought it is an ATi All In Wonder. I've run a couple of those in the past, and they were absolutely great.

    However, they may not be in your price bracket :B

    This is what I'd suggest you check, you can search for damn near any filters.

        Just make sure that you get the right card :p

        It'll have to be able to record from composite input.

        I know for a fact that AIW cards can do that, my uncle and I have both used them for that exact feature, to get stuff on VHS onto pc :B

    I go where I please, and I please where I go

    Also, check your videocard. I know most ATI cards have something called VIVO (VideoIn VideoOut) which acts like a capture card. If your card came with loads of video cables then you have it.
