Hi Janishunt-15,
You may want to try using the Windows Live Movie Maker. It's available from Microsoft's download.live.com.
With regard to compatibility, because your camcorder uses a firewire connection, no drivers are available or required for the transfer (A Firewire to USB adapter will not work).
One thing to check for here is the driver used by the firewire connection on your computer. If the firewire port is built into the motherboard, you'll want to check with your computer's manufacturer or the manufacturer of the motherboard.
If the firewire connection is via an expansion board, I'd check with the board's manufacturer. Also, if there's an auxiliary power connection on the board, please ensure that the board is correctly installed and connected, according to manufacturer's instructions.
You'll also want to ensure that the firewire cable is in good condition.
