yep its under there in device manager and it says
ieee 1394 bus host controllers then under that it says
texas instruments ohci compliant ieee 1394 host
controllers and when i click on that and pick properties
it says the devicce is working properly. the drivers are
installed.
why doesnt it see my xternal hard drives that are
connected to the firewire.
it just doesnt see any device that i connect to the
firewire. i tried another external HD , and the firewire
doesnt see it..
thanks
