Look at the label on the bottom of your camcorder--on the label is your model
number (looks like "CCD-TRV128" or something similar). Now go find it at the Sony web site at http://www.sonystyle.com On the Sony site, follow the Electronics Cancorder links (at left side of page) to find your model. If the product description doesn't tell you what you want to know, then scroll back up to the top of the page and try the Customer SUpport link. On the Customer SUpport page, there's a link to the "Product Support Site" --follow that to the "Support and Registration" page. At the top of that page, follow the "Documentation" link ( or the Knowledgebase link, or Tutorial link, ...), and then enter your model number when prompted. From here, you can download the electronic edition of the manual for your cam. It should tell you all about connecting to a computer. If you still have questions, send Sony tech support email asking what you need to connect and transfer video from your cam model to a PC. Good luck!

As it's Hi8 it will be analogue.
In order to get the video on to the pc, you need to use either a graphics card which has video in/out (VIVO) capability, or purchase either an internal analogue capture card or external device. See www.pinnaclesys.com chaep external www.canopus.com quality internal/external www.miglia.com quality external These will capture the video as a digital signal, thus you can import into MM and edit straight away. If you use the graphics card route you often need to convert the movie into an avi file before editing.
