I'm not too smart about computers, I know I have USB ports on my computer so I wanted to check if the computer has firewire, I went under device manager, there''s a section IEEE 1394 Bus Host Controllers- Texas Instruments OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller.

At least you have the "good" controller, TI's are the best.

Try looking on the computer itself to see if you have the port. Firewire comes in 2 plug variationg, the small one, like on the DVX, and a larger one, which is like a USB but thicker.

Okay ... in front of my computer at the buttom I have the 2 USB ports that you connect the cables to and there is a small one on the left which is not a usb port but different it says i.LINK S400 would that be it?

i.Link is sony's way of saying firewire (i think its named by sony?)
 
Re: Does This Mean I Already Have Firewire?

Yes. i.Link is your firewire port.

You'll need a 4-pin to 4-pin cable to use it.
