828Mk1 causes Vista to freeze
Posted: Sat Jun 14, 2008 12:44 pm
Hello everyone!
I have a new Dell computer that came with Vista installed on it. It didn't come with any firewire ports, so I installed a PCI card to solve that problem. Well, whenever I plugged my 828 Mk1 into it, the computer sits there for a second and then freezes completely. Nothing works at all. I've tried plugging it in with and without the drivers and also before the computer starts and afterwards. It still does the same thing.
One thing I did notice is that if I unplug my mouse and plug it back in, the infrared light does not come back on when it is locked up.
Could this possibly be a Vista issue? Perhaps it's the firewire card not working properly? Or maybe the 828 isn't working properly? I'm not sure how to fix this problem. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
