Firewire (IEEE 1394) not working
I use a Firewire Direct NitroAV Firewire 800 controller in Vista x64 Ultimate. Do you have the drivers installed in the device manager? -- SCSIraidGURU Michael A.

Firewire (IEEE 1394) not working
Here's my story.... any more input on resolutions! Pleae reply.
I bought Vista (Home Edition 32-bit) in December '07 from Dell. For 5 months, my Sony Hi8 DV Camcorder worked great. I could download movies without a problem using a 4 to 6 pin firewire cable (IEEE 1394) right into Adobe Premier Elements 4.0 for editing. Until May... at some point, the same camera via the same firewire cable is now no longer recognized by the computer, or by the software, and doesn't even appear in my device manager list. The only change I made was the purchase of a Dell 22" LCD monitor with an intregal webcam. I talked with Dell online, and they want me to revert to factory settings. I didn't do this. I talked with Adobe online and they suggested deleting the firewire port registry key. I didn't do this. I talked with Sony and they said to have the camera fixed. I decided to have the camera serviced for $110. Unfortunately, that did not fix the problem. The camera is still not recognized. Thinking it might be the webcam drivers blocking the imaging device, I tried to uninstall all the components of that webcam, but I don't know if I did it correctly, because that didn't seem to work. And Vista goes looking for the webcam drivers and loads it again. I bought a new Sony mini-DV camera. That does not work either. The cables and ports I have used all work because it allows me to plug in and use my Sony CD/DVD-ROM device. Any ideas why it would just stop working? And any ideas on how to get Vista to recognize my camera? |

Firewire (IEEE 1394) not working
Well, I'm running Vista on a HP dv9000. I had so many problems and compatibility issues that I downgraded back to a sound OS.. XP over a year ago. Then, my video went out and that's when all my problems really started. Vista was re-installed by HP. I thought that a year later, my peripherals might now have work... but no dice. But, ALAS!! I was able to solve all my problems by doing something I never thought I'd do.... I bought a Mac!! :O) Thanks MicroSoft and HP... one of the best decisions I've ever made. My firewire cable and devices work just fine with it, right out of the box. Good Luck! -- jlias |

This seems ot be a problem for lots of people on the net, and I have given up trying to fix fire wire and resorted to a USB Video Capture cable. Do a sear4ch for one of those to import your video camera VGA signal intot he computer. -- GavHendo |

Firewire (IEEE 1394) not working
I have been having the same problem - only in my case I can sometimes get the camera to be recognised. I have the same problem on a Laptop with XP sp2 and on Vista ultimate. I found this link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/885222 and follwed the registry edits to get mine to a state where it is more reliable. The problem appears to be with older firewire enabled cameras. When XP SP 2 was released microsoft changed the SipSpeed setting from 100 to 400 but this can be too fast for some older equipment. I created the SipSpeed entry in the registry and XP2 was fine. I took a chance making the same change for Vista and it looks a lot more reliable since then. I guess there could be some newer cameras that have the same problem as well if they have the old firewire connection speed.
