| | Firewire port on USB Hi! A foolish question (I think) My Dell has two PCI slots, both occupied. I am not able to locate a PCI-X or PCIx16 firewire card in the friendly neighbourhood grocery shop. Is there any "adaptor" to connect 1394 devices through USB? I dont think so, but a shot in the dark! Mohan -- Message posted via http://www.windowskb.com |

I'd definitely look further than the corner grocer: http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProdu...duct_Id=249082 http://www.firewire-1394.com/pci-exp...ds-api-316.htm John |
