When you first ran the power SDR software did it install a firewire driver there are specific instructions in the power SDR startup to do this. 73 Morris WA4MIT

It all depends or your PC and your firewire card. Read this article: https://helpdesk.flexradio.com/hc/en-us/articles/206605796-Selecting-High-Performance-Firewire-Cards-for-the-FLEX-5000-and-FLEX-3000
I use either a PANASONIC Toughbook or a GETAC S400 notebook. Both have firewire and work with the Flex-3k firewire driver.

I have bought two different brands of firewire cards and neither one of those have worked and the ones i know that have worked have been out of stock for 6 months or more.
If anyone finds a card that works please let the group know, I do know the that the Startech do NOT work at least for me, I tried 2 of them and they don't work.

The firewire driver did install. When I purchased the radio the seller supplied two firewire cards.The card I was using with the TI chipset did not work0

sorry for breaking up my reply, Server error dropped me out, I installed the card with a Via chipset and it works fine, I tried the other Ti chipset based card first, It seemed to be the preferred chip. The radio is working great. Thank you for the replies. 730

[{"insert":"What card worked for you? I can’t seem to get my 3k to work either. I have VIA card chipset. Need a link to the card to buy.
