Hello. We have a digital camcorder that uses firewire to hook to a brand new Sony PC with XP Pro SP1.
PC has firewire built in.
PC never did see camera, then one day it did. After reboot, no good again, ever.
Camera has "DV In" on screen, so it sees firewire port.
Have tried 2 new cables.
Any ideas on what to reinstall / download?
Thanks!!

Try a non-Sony firewire card. Its my understanding that the Sony IF is propriatary to Sony peripherals.
