I concur.. Most dv capture seems to show a jerky preview on the monitor. Plug the firewire into your camera and preview its output on that and see what you get.
If you can have a hard drive solely for capturing of video. If you have a heap of things running in the system tray that don't need to be there.. get rid of them. Disable any ant virus program while your capturing as well.

More likely it's incoming e-mail. I would quit everything else, and even run the program maximized. Capturing to a mostly empty volume might be a good idea too. One other thought, if it's DV then there's a good chance that jerkiness you see in the capture preview area doesn't mean that it missed anything. Does it play back jerky?
