IEEE 1394 problem

Hello all
I installed vista on my mum and dads pc last night and all was going perfect until about an hour ago when I fitted the wireless network card to get on the internet and it wouldnt install fully and I get a message saying that I need a driver for the IEEE1394 controller ?? I cant get on the internet on that pc to check for drivers so im using my laptop but cant find any drivers,Ive also installed driver robot and that came up with a few drivers so i stuck them on a usb stick and installed but no luck.Ive gone into the device manager and under "other devices" the IEEE1394 controller is showing as a little question mark so ive gone into that and its saying no drivers are installed. I think its been like this from the second i installed vista but ive just noticed it when i tried to instal the wireless network card.Any ideas of how to fix this please ? and is it solveable ? I can not find any drivers for my mobo at all. the mobo is the asus p4p800 se
Thanks loads in advance
Joe

Hello joeteds,
you may find the drivers your looking for at the site below, it's a 3rd party site so i dont know if they will suffice.

Download Drivers - Bios - ASUS - P4P800 SE - driver8146.zip


Do you know the make and model number of the network card ?.

The only problem i can see is that Asus dont offer any drivers for your motherboard under Vista, i think you should get in touch with Asus and clarify this before you waste a load of time on this.

The link below will take you to the Asus forum for your motherboard, i would check there in the post's to see if there are any fix's for your issue.

Good luck.
