I am using Windows 98 as my O/S. My processor is Cyrix MII. and my Mother
Board is BIOSTAR-M5ATD.....
I want to know:
1. With the help of contemporary Webcam, is it possible to record a video in
a file and store it in Hard Disk? Is the length of the video Limited by the
Webcam?
2. What is the possible format in which a Webcam can record video?  .mpeg or
others......??

3. Where should I connect the Wabcam to ? Is it to a Com / USB port ?
4. Should I require any driver-card to install Webcam ?

Please Help...

Sincerely
Sanjoy
