Hello

I just bought a 1394 card which is detected by windows 2000 automatically and the Texas instruments driver are installed. The camera works fine but it cannot be used with
Adobe premiere. Upon investigation I found that premiere needs the MS drivers instead of the TI.

Everytime i tried to install MS DV CAMERA AND VCR driver,
the system returns an error "an error occurred during the
installation of the device.
the required section was not found in the inf"

I installed sp2,directx8, and directx8 updater; but the
same thing is happening.

Can anyone tell me how to make the MS driver work?
Any information is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

The few times I have been asked to resolve such an error-the cause of it always was that either the driver was incompatible with the hardware for which it was being installed (version or vendor), or the driver was incompatible with the OS version onwhich it was being installed.So, first of all ,make sure the driver is Win2k compatible.
Now, I might've misunderstood, and forgive me if I did, but from what I figured, the card came from TI ,and the driver-from MS. R u 100% sure it should work insuch combination?

Good luck.

Thanks Dalli

The card is installed correctly using the default drivers from MS (that's how it is suppose to be) The device which is a camera should also accept the default drivers but for some reason the default driver from MS has a problem (theone I posted on my original question) if i use the texas instrument default driver for camcorders, it works but adobe premiere REQUIRES the use of the default MS driver not the TI.

Thanks for the effort, if you come up with another idea, let me knoe.

I uninstall the card and drivers and the next time, I was able to install the texas instruments default drivers with no problems...
