Firewire doesn't work after Hotfixes

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

My computer doesn't recognize my external Firewire HD after I just installed
the latest spate of Hotfixes from Microsoft. It would take a while to
troubleshoot (have to uninstall the hotfixes, then install them one by one
to find the culprit, rebooting each time - a lot of trouble!!!). Has anyone
run into this problem? Any quick solutions.
(Using WinXP Pro.)

Thanks.
