My system reboots when trying to use a firewire device. Running XP Pro on an Athlon 650 system with 384 MB of ram. System is built on a Gigabyte GA7IX mainboard. Recognizes firewire device when connected, but when trying to use device system reboots. All drivers are the latest available.

Open the Control Panel,double-click on System icon,check the device to see if their is an yellow exclamation mark
The other possibility is the their is an IRQ conflict with the same devices using the same IRQ
try moving one of the deviecs to another IRQ
