Supposing that this isn't a digital video camera and it has no fireware port, what you need is extra hardware.
Is the computer's S-video port next to the screen port? Then it's an output, not an input, and connecting that to the camcorder will do no good.
You need a capture card, and the rest (what types of card, capture/editing software, video formats, storage...) is beyond the scope of this answer.
By the way, afaik USB is never used to transfer video from/to video cameras.
