downloading from camcorder to PC

May 9, 2005 3:28PM PDT

I bought my son a Panasonic PV-GS19 camcorder. He is unable to download what he has filmed to our PC. We downloaded software from panasonic but that did not help. I assumed that we would be able to download with the USB cable. We did not get a DV cable with the camcorder and the software says no DV connection.
If I get a DV cable will I be able to down load to PC?
What kind of connection is on the PC end of DV cable?
Roger
