New to this board but have seen the posts about reinstall of SP-1 system files to fix firewire issues with SP2. ( I eventually had to format & reinstall SP1 )
I have a new pci combo usb/firewire card coming that is WHQL certified.
I'm hoping that this was my main problem when I last updated to SP2. ( I lost my Maxtor DV external drive, and connectivity with my Panasonic DV camera after SP2 )
I intend to remove my old pci card which drove my media reader, external drive, and pass through for the camera. Remove the references to these devices, then update to SP2 via Windows Update instead of the CD.
As to date, has anyone really nailed the fix for firewire beside what I have mentioned & seen in the older posts?
Thanks,
