P IV processor..SATA HDD..available..Motherboard 915..

Your budget is high enough for getting a good capture card. Choose from a wide range of Pinnacle Capture cards. Most of them also provide T.V. Tuner too. They are available from Rs.3000/- to Rs. 10000/-. RAM of 512 MB is good enough for Video capture.

There are many Video editors available. Simplest would be Windows Movie Maker. Amoung the paid versions, Ulead Video Studio adds a professional touch to the movie.
