I'm using the cable that came with it, and a little converter they included, to make it into the square shaped plug with the ditch in the top, whichever that is, I'm never sure. Also included, was a firewire cable with a smaller plug on the end, kind of like Miny USB, but that doesn't fit, not sure what they're called, but either way, the interface doesn't work. I have a friend coming round tomorrow to try and dig into the driver, and fix the bloody thing for me.
Any ideas as to why it's not working? Cheers, On 27/09/2011, Monkey Pusher <monkeypushe...@gmail.com> wrote: > Firewire 800 should be backwards compatible.
