I just bought the EasyCAP USB 2.0 Video Adapter with Audio and i am trying to capture video using the professional video editing software Ulead Video Studio 8. SE DVD and every time I click on the capture tab, the computer blue screens shortly after and then reboots.
I'm using a windows xp and a jvc camcorder, hooked to the easycap via svideo
i installed the drivers on the disk and rinstalled them and i don't know what else to do.
blue screen when ever I try to capture video

If your device came with some other capture software, use that software for the capture step. Most analog video capture devices need to be used with their own special software.
I assume your JVC camcorder is an ANALOG camcorder? If it's digital, you can connect directly to the computer and you don't need the EasyCAP device!
If an SE version of Video Studio was bundled with the package, it may have been included so that you can use it for editing, and for DVD authoring/burning.
FYI -Your version of Video Studio is limited. The SE versions that come "free" with hardware don't have all of the features of the full retail version. And, we are now at version 11. (But this probably has nothing to do with your capture problem.)
A blue-screen crash is usually a driver problem. (The driver comes from the hardware manufacturer.) Video Studio may not know how to talk to that particular driver.
...I have another concern - I assume this is an MPEG only capture device. Some of us have had strange problems when editing MPEGs ("lip-sync" problems, etc.). VS8 may have been more prone to these problems than the newer versions, but AFAIK, these problems have not gone-away completely.
