Are you running firewire to the cam and analogue out of the cam to the
monitor?
Have you tried adobe for any updates to Pro, they are up to 1.5 now, which
may help.
As for different pc's and one working and the other not, due to the large
number of different parts fitted to each, this often will happen.
You could try unistalling the firewire card, and then removing it. rebooting
and turn off pc, refit the card possibly in a different pci slot and then
reboot again.
Along with Cari's antivirus, try disconnecting from the net and turn off
firewall/screensaver/powersave modes and any other apps you don't need.
Defrag the hard drive, capture to a seperate hard drive from the O/S one.
