Hi all.
I have a Dell D600 laptop and docking station running windows XP pro. Until today I had a three port firewire card in the PCI slot of the docking station. Today I tried to replace it with a combination USB2/Firewire card. When the system boots the new hardware bubble comes up and first recognizes the PCI to USB controller and everything goes fine. As soon as it recognizes the 1394 controller, the system freezes hard. I've tried several times with no luck. If I boot off of the docking station everything works just dandy. Something about that firewire controller is locking up my system. Anyone ever seen this before, or know how to get around it?
Thanks!
