Adding a ieee1394 card - failure

C

Chris Drake

I have added a 4 port card to PCI1. Windows detects it
and then reports a problem claiming the data is invalid.

Using another drive I did a clean install with no harware
change and the device was detected and the drivers
installed. This is not the forst time I have experienced
this problem with adding hardware to a 'mature' version
of XP. I do not want to have to re-install, just get the
thing to work!

Hi Chris.

Did you try another PCI Slot (As far away as possible from AGP)?
Depending on the Layout of your mobo, the IRQ depends on the slot you use...

Cheers,

It's an XP registry protection prob Chris

It's common.

You have to go to run/start
and type regedit. Then go here.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\PCI

Under this, you'll see VEN_xxxxxxx

Click on each one, until u find your firewire card
and click on it/permissions then tick full control
then reboot. It should install the drivers for it.

The only thing is, any other PCI cards you
install, may bring up that data is invalid error
again
