1394 IEEE firewire code 10 error in vista

Darren S

Platform: Vista Home Premium SP2 and SP1

Problem Description: VIA OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller
This device cannot start. (Code 10)

Attempted solutions:

Uninstall / Re-install: Error, Device Driver was not Correctly installed.

Check Driver: Driver update tells me I have the right driver.

Found issue on Microsoft site saying:

Windows Vista does not enumerate an IEEE 1394a device that you connect to
the computer - it was the closest match to my issue.

Followed instructions but no resolution.

Checked campatabilty matrix but there did not seem to be any 1394 PCI cards,
just motherboards from AXUS!

I have seen lots of posts on various forums on this but no solutions - any
help greatly appreciated.
 
Hi Peter,

Thanks for taking the time to reply but the issue is not USB it is 1394
firewire. The hardward is internal PCI and the platform is Vista not XP
although I appreciate that a solution could still apply but sadly not in this
case.

You need to go into device manager uninstall the driver and reboot. If
that doesn't work you may need to identify the 1394 device manufacturer
and obtain their driver since MS may be distributing a older or problem
driver.
There name should be on their IC chips on the 1394 card. You may also
have a FCC ID number on the card and you can look it up here:

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/

That will tell you who manufactured the card even if the card says Blue
Weasel on it. I have had success finding drivers for devices from
obscure companies that solved the driver problem for me. So that is the
route you should consider.

It is also possible that your device is failing and the manufacturer may
have a testing program to tell you if that is the case.

Good Luck.
