1394 PCMCIA card question.

#1 Post by JEBB » Fri Mar 25, 2005 1:55 pm

R40, 512MB, XP/SP2

I bought a 1394 PCMCIA card that ought to work right away but doesn't.

Shouldn't I be able put it in the slot and it would be recognized? Didn't happen. In fact it froze the computer. Or should I have it in the slot when I turn on the computer. I want to use it to connect to a firewire ext. HD.

Thanks

You should be able to plug it in while the machine is running. Maybe try disabling PCI Bus Power Management in the BIOS?
