Hello,

Today I woke up and in the middle of a massive 5 DVD project, my Canon XL-1s was not detected in Windows. It's worked fine until today. To test, I also tried hooking up my Primera Bravo DVD burner via Firewire as well as my external hard drive. Nothing was detected. Out of curiosity, I bought another firewire card and slapped it in. Windows says it's fine in the control panels under 1394 OHCI compatible or whatever.

However, I get nothing with either the old PCI firewire card or the new one.

My computer specs
AMD XP 2000
Soyo Dragon KT333
512 DDR Corsair Ram
TI 4600 Video card
Maxtor ATA 133 hard drives


I have the feeling that this is some sort of Windows problem, but I really dont' know. Any help would be appreciated.
