Hi. Older guy not computer savvy. I had a nephew volunteer to build me a new machine, best as I could afford so I could use my older hdcam and edit in HDV instead of std as I had been doing. So now the new rig won't recognized my camera connected through Firewire 1394. Please, can someone help me with potential solutions. PC specs. are in my profile. Please, my Mini HDV tapes are getting old and I really need to transfer through FireWire and save those memories.
 
What are you trying to use as a firewire interface to the new hardware?

If you're trying to use an old card (some sound cards used to ship with it) and aren't having any luck, chances are there aren't any compatible windows 10 drivers for the card. Best bet would be to grab a new firewire card designed for windows 10...


(Quite a few reasonably priced ones there.... ).

Thank you. I will definately look at a new windows 10 compatible 1394 video capture FireWire card. Thank you for the link. I will look into sound cards for that connection as well.

I doubt very much that you're going to find a current day consumer sound card with a firewire connection on it these days. There might be a few high end music production cards that have it for connection to legacy hardware, but that'd be it.

Hi again. I opened my case and will be removing the FW card and getting a recommended card. Some time ago I downloaded legacy drivers from a website as a solution but PC crashed when I try to uninstall old drivers.

Hi there. So my Vantec PCIe FireWire card came in and I'm going to install. Problem now is it's a powered card. I have no clue how to connect this. The cable harness connection to the card is easy to read....yellow, black, black, red. There's no colour on the card to match. Then those 4 wires go to another harness thats long thin series of pins, like on a sd card. I can't seem to get were that might get pressed into? I got pictures. Maybe you know and can help?

The cable is an IDE to SATA power adapter. The white plugs in to the card, the black connects to a SATA plug from your power supply.

Yes but white plugged to card as it sits, with yellow up or with red up? Then to sata power? Is that easy to find?
