Depending on what you intend to use it for, personally it's probably more effective to get a cheap purpose made DVR. Plenty to chose from on maplins etc.
For a cheap solution there is

just one left though so be quick - others available at extra cost http://www.spycameracctv.com/spycame...usb-audio-cctv

I have a DVR which I run 4 cameras, it is networked so I can view over the internet and even has a smartphone app which I can use. - I did have a dedicated PC with capture card but the DVR is far far better but be mindful you will need a display.

Please avoid maplins DVR's especially the Swann systems - they have a major security flaw.

A company I use, which is just down the road from me is CCTV warehouse, they have an ebay store and these DVR's are very very good.
