You need a capture device between the camera and your laptop. You do not specify the type of AV connection you have from the camera and that determines what type of capture device you go for. Provide more details.

thanks its just a plain yellow push on plug.just vid one no audio,but dont need,i plug it in back of small tv to watch,,,,,,,,could i hook up a dvd recorder to it?????but to record onto laptop would be best

You could hook it up to a dvd-recorder or get a basic analogue capture device. The cheapest/decent option would be an Ezcap116. Do not be tempted by cheaper easycaps as these do not always work.
