Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor will work well with either USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 connections
to your computer; Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor also serves as a USB hub. For
flexibility, USB 2.0 is preferred. USB 1.1 does not support the data transfer speed
required for capturing DV. However, Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor can encode video
into MPEG and USB 1.1 will support MPEG bitrates that give excellent results for
DVD projects (the Ulead applications allow up to 5 Mbps for USB 1.1).

Universal Serial Bus controllers. One or more of your controllers may say "USB
2.0". Under the Properties of such a controller, look at the Driver tab to
determine if you have the latest high speed drivers. These may be obtained from
the website for your computer or motherboard manufacturer, or the Intel website.
Use Windows XP because of its USB 2.0 support, general reliability and improved
media functionality.
Your graphics card needs to be compatible with Direct X (in particular, to support
Direct X 9) but does not need 3D performance – video applications use 2D, which
is adequately supplied by all modern graphics cards.
