Hi, need help, can't figure out what is wrong. My Motherboard has built in
firewire which did not appear in device manager and could not force XP to see
it by manually selecting new hardware.
Does not appear as NIC either as sometimes happens.
I purchased a firewire PCI card and this does not appear automatically
either, it is not detected automatically, when i go to force it through Add
New Hardware and i choose 1394.inf there are no manufacturers in the list to
choose from, therefore cannot install!!
The card works fine in my win2K computer, so is not a card problem, not a
PCI slot problem as I tried a RAID card in that slot and is detected.
I have SP2, only loaded it to see if it would fix this problem, along with
all latest updates.
I don't want to do a complete reinstall of XP as there is a bunch of work
and programs that would take weeks to reinstall.
