I finally was able to use my tape on the camcorder and transfer video to my computer from my camcorder. I used a 4in-4in pin. It works fine now. Thanks for all the help.

First, you need a Firewire connection (also called IEEE 1394). Most of
PC computers don't have it, including mine. I bought a cheap Firewire
card and installed it into an empty PCI slot, costed about $15. I hope you don't have the USB cable and the firewire cable plugged into
your computer at the same time. That can break things.
With the firewire cable plugged into the DV port of the camcorder and
the firewire port of the computer and the camcorder is in Play mode (and
plugged into the wall AC power with the power adapter), are you saying
that when you launch MovieMaker and "Capture", the video camera is not
recognized?
There are only two conditions that can cause this:
1) The firewire400 port on the computer is not working properly (how do
you know it is working?). If you are using Vista Home Basic, chances are
good that the IEEE1394a firewire port drivers were never loaded... so,
that will be your first step. Get that port working and you'll be ready
to go.
2) The DV port on the camcorder is not working properly. This could be
for several reasons, but lets hope the DV port was not fried if you ever
had the USB and firewire connections to your computer at the same
time... Reset the camcorder to factory defaults by disconnecting all
cables, removing the rechargeable battery and removing the little
date/time button battery inside the camcorder. Wait for about 20
minutes. Put the button battery back in, then put the rechargeable
battery back on. Set the date and time. Connect the firewire cable to
the DV port, connect the AC power adapter to the wall, connect the other
side of the firewire cable to the firewire port on the computer, launch
MovieMaker - will it "Capture" from the video tape?
Anyone you know nearby with an AppleMacintosh and iMovieHD? You will need a
4-pin to 6-pin firewire cable and the AC power adapter. If it works with
the Mac, we know it is not the camcorder's DV port. If it does not
work, chances are good the camcorder's firewire port is bad. Hope this was helpful?
Have you tried installing the software from the CD on the PC you are transferring to? There is no drivers for fire-wire.You can buy a a IEEE 1394 firewire to USB 2.0 cable if you do not have a firewire connection on your PC. The software captures the video or still shots.

Use firewire connection(DV Port) and must use a good quality cable. Sub standard cable lead you to trouble. There's no Vista issue with this camcorder model, only at the software side, JVC website provide a list for those update is needed including upgrade link. I can not post the link this time since that was long time and i need to search for that again. Have search it on JVC site, i will give you an update as well. Good Luck, keep in touch
if you are using a desktop, you require a an addon card called IEEE 1394 firewire card, which you have to install it on your motherboard's PCI slot, then using the firewire cable which you get along with the card should be connected to the card and DV port of the camera, then using the MOVIE MAKER software of windows XP, you can download the video.
The camcorder has the following connections :-
USB connector
DV connector (DV IN/OUT) (iLINK)
Audio/Video output connector
DC input connector
