I don't know if this will help, since the experiece I have with such videos is
a little more casual – a "project update" for our customers. They wanted to
see what the program looked like at a particular point in time, and requested a
video tape. We purchased a "genlock" board for this function. What it does is
capture the actions seen on your monitor and output that to the VCR. I turned
it on, set the tape rolling, and proceeded to "walk through" the software on my
computer. After that was done, I used some basic audio equipment to add a
voice-over explaining each screen or action. I'm not sure this is
"professional" enough for what you're looking for, but it got the results
quickly.
In case you decide to look into this route:
We used a RocGen board, and were not so pleased with it (see other message
thread regarding this), but I guess other people have been quite pleased with
it. John Sobernheim also said that he has heard good things about GVP Personal
Suite Plus.
Good luck!
