Capturing Problems with the DVX100A

Hey all, I hope you can help me out here:

I'm currently running on a PC computer, 150 GB hd, 512 MB RAM, 2.4 GHz. I use Premiere Elements to edit. I filmed some footage on a Panasonic DVX100A camera. I normally film stuff on my Sony Handycam and capture my footage just fine onto my computer. However, when I try to capture footage from the DVX, I run into some problems. My editing program doesn't seem able to recognize the camera very well, it won't capture the footage and the program runs sluggishly. I restarted my computer several times and was able to capture some footage in, but I had problems throughout the capture saying I had drop frames and encountering recording errors. I really just don't understand how one camera can cause my computer to go haywire.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

does your editing program support the dvx as an ingest (capture) device via firewire? check the specks. it may not be supported.
