Help needed from a geek...

I bought a Panasonic SDR-H40P SD/HD video camera about 4.5 years ago. Since then, I've updated my computer twice, but always used the old XP computer when downloading the videos from the camera to the computer. Well, that computer is no longer with us...it died a horrible death.

The VideoCam suite 1.0 that came with the camera won't run on the Windows 7 or 8 platforms (I have computers with both).

What is available? Panasonic doesn't have 1.0 that works with 7 (My 8 was loaded over 7, so if it works with 7, it should work with 8). However...The one they have for 7 has multiple downloads instead of being able to download it with a single click of a button. Since I don't trust having to use multiple downloads, what should I do?

Is there a better, free program that would allow me to edit my video? I have 3 concerts that I need to edit that my daughter's choir was in, and I want to put them to DVD for the few family members that want it.

Thanks.
