Windows 10: how do I install firewire drivers on Windows 11 Pro

i have an old Sony DCR-TRV25E and I want to transfer some footage onto my Windows 11 Pro computer so far, I cannot get the computer top recognise the camcorder, my guess is this is due to not having firewire drivers on my computer I have tried a USB connection but this did not work any help would be much appreciated e

Step 4
install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
Step 5

1394a Firewire drivers for Windows 10

I have a Siig too an 800 3 port pcie in particular. i was having intermittent sound issues and thought it was my audio interface but soon found it was the firewire drivers. i updated to the latest drivers and lost sound completely.

cut a long story short i went to device manager after updating three times just to be sure, and saw the siig 1394 controller at the top of the list labelled as a bus controller, i just thought it was odd and not where it normally sits in the list, so i right
clicked it and clicked update drivers, it prompted me to choose from where so i'd pretty much given up by now and clicked from the web. then a little bar came up filled up and up popped my profire (firewire device)

might not be that helpful but i thought id chip in since i had this page open when i stumbled upon the solution.
