Has the firewire card ever worked 100% ? If not then try using another cable and if still a problem, then try another firewire card. Not all firewire cards will work properly. You can also try another port for the card0

got radio only few week ago and buy card bit later since card that come whit radio was PCI
so have no historical data yet , have try to change cable but no luck0 -
The recommended Firewire chipset is a Texas Instruments. Others may have issues.1

HI ok thank
have order a Siig NN-E20012-S2 FireWire 2-Port PCIe
so hope it fix the thing ...0 -
Marc
That should work, it's the same PCIE card that Flexradio is selling in the store. I went with the, PCI version, a Siig NN-400012-S8, also sold by Flexradio, I got mine off of Amazon. Both are TI chip sets. The PCI version because I had a single PCI slot left available in this PC, and wanted to fill it first before filling my PCIE slots. Mine works great.
