Can anyone give me some pointers about avoiding dropped frames while capturing to my laptop?

Im running windows XP, Intel 3.06ghz, 1 gig of ram. VV4.0c, only one hard drive however.

Any suggestions?

1) Turn off everything that's not needed to run VidCap.
2) Defrag drive.

Are you capturing via 1394 port?

I've got a 900MHz laptop and it's never dropped a frame, with yours it should eat it.
