Why do my captured videos have no sound or in slow motion?

I have a DCR-HC21 sony handycam. When I capture videos (using video capturing tool) the capture videos are in slow motion or there is no sound. I am watching them under windows media player. What is wrong, I was thinking it might possibly be my USB cord but I am not to sure about that. Please help me.Why do my captured videos have no sound or in slow motion?Your dv camcorder needs a firewire connection (ieee 1394) in order to download video, your PC probably did not come with a firewire port, so you will have to buy one and install it, since most computers (except possibly brand new) don't come with a firewire port, your camcorder did not come with a firewire cord so you have to purchase a cord too. Your camcorder did come with a USB cord and that is used for downloading stills from your camcorder.Why do my captured videos have no sound or in slow motion?You may be right as miniDV data has to be captured by a video capture or editing* app thru a firewire connection.
