Hi, my tower has a slot for FIREWIRE on the top, and it was apparently
connected to the motherboard. It never worked when I would plug in the
firewire from the top, so I got a port which i installed in the back of my
tower and connected to the mother board. When I use a FIREWIRE cable, it
still doesn't detect anything in Windows. My brother's computer detected the
firewire cable (attached at the other end to a Digital Camcorder), so I know
that something is supposed to be detected in the control panel (bottom right
of screen) as soon as I connect the wire to the computer FIREWIRE slot or the
camera. Nothing is happening.
Is there some way I can check to make sure the FIREWIRE is hooked up and
connected properly through BIOS or Device Manager? Is there some sort of
setting anywhere that I have to adjust or update? Do I need to download
anything?
Anyone's help is greatly appreciated in this manner!
Happy Holidays,
Mike
