Help, Help, Help, Can't capture analog tapes

I am brand new at this. I have a ATI aiw 8500dv video card. I have my vcr hooked up with the home video in it that I want to put on my computer. It is hooked to the video card with the red, white ,and yellow wires. The guy that built my computer for me already had the video card ready when I got it. I start the tape in the vcr and try to see if I can find it with virtual dub, Ulead Video Studio 6, and the ati program that goes with the card. All I am getting is snow in my picture areas. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG!!!!!!!

Have you selected composite input as your video source. It defaults to the TV tuner, you have to select composite input
