 |  FireWire networking in WinXP - loses connection When trying to copy files between 2 PC's with firewire, the copy stops after a few seconds, and I lose connection between the 2 PC's. if I wait 2min the network is back up as if nothing has happened :crap: PC1: Abit TH7II-R PCI VIA IEEE 1394 card PC2: Chaintech CT-9CJS Onboard VIA IEEE 1394 both have the same default XP driver installed. anybody encountered this issue? somethings wrong speedwise also... max 1.2-2.4Mb/s ?

 | did you try a new cable already. There is a bit of a difference between firewire attached storage and firewire networking. I know it worked fine for jimmy.

| don't have another cable, cable was one that was intended for "attached storage". How much does a firewire "network" cable cost? how do you tell the difference?

| don't know IF there is a difference, but there could be. similar to USB PC2PC cables and UTP, they got to be twisted. But then it shouldn't work at all. Just guessing here, the 10/100 still has to do it for me (until giogabit is either PCIX or chipset/CSA)
