Canon ZR70MC not recognized by XP & system freezes

Guest

Hi, I have trouble with the following configuration

- ACER TM 233 LC notebook, Windows XP home OEM with ALL
newest updates (clean installation
- new DeLock CardBus Firewire 3Port (IEEE 1394 compilant
hostadapter) for the PCMCIA slo
- new Canon Camcorder ZR70M
- new firewire cable 6-
------------------------------------

When plugging the Firewire adapter, the necessary drivers
are automatically installed by device manager
When plugging the camcorder, most of the times just
nothing happens - eventhough I installed the XP patch
Q329256 for correct firewire enumeration, the camcorder is
almost never recognized. If the camcorder is detected
(maybe one of 20 times), I start video capturing
(MovieMaker 2) and suddenly the whole system freezes
completely after a few seconds -> hardware reset is
necessary

WindowsXP automatically sets 4 times the same IRQ "17" for
- Crystal WDM AC'97Driver for ICH4 (Audio-Controller
- O2Micro OZ6912-CardBus-Controller (PCMCIA-Adapter
- VIA OHCI-compilant IEEE 1394-hostcontrolle
- driver for the internal AC'97 Link mode

might this be a problem
In the System-information program (msinfo32.exe)
everything shows "OK"

Please help me to resolve this !
Is there any WORKAROUND immeadetly available ??
I am a software engineer, but I really dont know what to
do - after trying everything for 3 days now
Is it necessary to change certain BIOS parameters like PCI
IRQ Routing

Many thanks in advance

Which 1394 adapter finally worked? I have the same
problem with a zr70mc IBM T30 with SIIG 2 Port 1394 Card
Bus PC Card.
