Absolutly. Get a TV capture card (a.k.a. tv tuner card) which has the right type of connector for your vcr. Most new TV capture cards have only RCA jacks, so hopefully your VCR has RCA output jacks on it. The TV capture card should come with DVR type of software so that you can record the videos straight to your hard drive. I'm assuming that is what you want to do. The ones for regular PC's are not that expensive at all. Maybe a little over $50. the ones for laptops though are external and much more expensive.
