Windows 10: Firewire card does not work (DELL PC, Windows 10)?

Hello, everyone,

I recently bought a Firewire card to transfer my miniDV tapes. This card fits into the slot but is not recognized by the device manager. I have already installed the Legacy 1394 driver, but it didn't work. The Firewire card should normally work with Windows 10.

Thanks a lot!

Movimaker and Firewire problem

Hi.

I have tryed that and a number of other options.

Now I have given up and returned the PCIe FireWire 1394a Card (F-261) to the retailer.

Do you have any suggestion on other Firewire I/F card that you know works for Windows 10 ?

Regards / Ingemar

 

Does Windows 10 Pro x64 support Firewire adapter?

I learned Windows 10 does support firewire. A 3 port firewire 1394B & 1394A PCIe card
adapter was installed and sure enough, the system does recognized the device. The device manager lists the firewire adapter as, "Texas Instruments 1394 OHCI Compliant Host Controller." The firewire device supports both 800 or 400 Mbps. A
HD camcorder (Canon HV20) connected to either 1394a or the 1394b port and was tested, both 1394a and b worked.




So to answer my own question, yes, Windows 10 supports firewire.

 

Firewire IEEE1394 not working in Windows 10

I tried to load the IEEE1394 legacy driver. Only I cannot find the IEEE1394 in C:/Program Files x86. The host is mentioned in the hardware (without "legacy").

The Firewire card is working because when I connect the video recorder it is mentioned in the connected hardware list.

Updating driver is not working because the system says that all is updated and working.
