I was tossing up buying a combo DVD recorder with a built in VHS
player...they claim to easily transfer VHS to DVD...then it would be a
matter of inserting DVD into PC and loading video files from there.

My choice to do this was to purchase a combination VCR/DVD Recorder. I put
the tape in one side and dub the video to a blank DVD disc. As such, this
can serve as a 'copy' of the VHS video in digital form and no further work
is necessary. However, I usually do go further and load the .vob files
from the DVD to my computer hard drive. In order to get the .vob files
ready for Movie Maker, it is necessary to convert them to a compatible file
type. For this I use VirtualDub for MPEG2 with the WMV9 codec. The
resulting .avi file is imported into Movie Maker and I go from there.

If you just want simple copies of the VHS tapes...
a DVD recorder is definitely the way to go. This
way you don't even need a computer.

Thanks everyone for your response.
I realize that wording of my original post may be misleading. I wanted
VCR to simply represent analogue recording. My immediate need is to
digitize video tape recordings taken by a type of analogue movie camera
whose recording is not compatible VHS player. I have VCR tapes to
digitally archive though.
