Who can solve my Firewire problem?

[JaydenChris]

I have a Asus P4C800 Deluxe mobo...and trying to connect my JVC digital camera via firewire. I've done this in the past and it's worked. However, recently I've tried to connect it but now my computer is not recognizing a connection.

1.) Is there a way to test my firewire port to see if it's functioning?
2.) What am I doing/not doing right?

Reinstall Drivers, and then see if it werks if not it might be your camera. To test the port go buy some peice of firewire hardware, connect it, test everything, and then return after you are done testing with it.

Yeah, wahtever drivers contain the Firewire drivers (i assume it on you mobo, if thats true than yes reinstall ur mobo drivers)
