Re: Networking over IEEE 1394 IMPOSSIBLE?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Boot into Safe Mode, open Device Manager, delete/remove ALL instances of any
1394 adapter you find, reboot; Windows will re-detect the hardware and,
hopefully, install the drivers so the yellow! is gone.

Hi,

I'll be short;

I want to make a network connection over firewire between 2 machines;
iMac Core Duo (Windows XP SP2 installed via BootCamp) and P4 1.8
Windows XP/SP2

On iMac, i can see 1394 net adapter properly installed via Device
Manager. No problem here, everything works as it should be.

But on P4 machine there's a yellow (!) on the "1394 net adapter" with
an error code of 10. The card is a TI IEEE 1394a (PCI).

1) Searched the net for a proper non-MS driver. FAILED
2) Tried other PCI slots. FAILED
3) Booted the PC in safe mode, and replaced the driver files in
C:\Windows\system32\dllcache with the proper ones from the iMac (5 .sys
files). FAILED
4) Tried reinstalling Windows XP without any service pack. FAILED

I've an M-Audio Firewire Solo audio interface. It's working flawlessly,
so i know it's not a hardware issue. It's odd that when i connect the
FW cable, on iMacs display right bottom side (guess it's called tray)
"1394 connection is connected" pops up. Then i double-clicked the
connection icon, on the general tab it shows many packets sent and
recieved. How can it be possible even the driver of P4 machine is
problematic?

I'm desperately waiting for a solution, please help me...
Thanks.
