Re: [Flexradio] 1394A Chipset for 5000A

2014-11-10 Thread Neal Campbell
Ron,

Every card is different (each individual card) but I have a  history of
Startech cards going bad and locking up people's machines, especialy at
boot time. I think there is a reason the SIIG cards cost a bit more and its
because they are of a higher quality. I haven't had 1 SIIG card fail me
since i made the switch 2 years ago.

StarTech has a 1394 card Product ID PC1394MP which uses a TI Chipset and I have 
used it successfully with a Flex-3000 on Win 7. 
Chipset ID Texas Instruments - TSB12LV26

We have had issues with VIA chipsets where in Win7 you have to revert 
the system 1394 driver back to the legacy (Vista) version to get the 
radio to work adequately.  I highly recommend using a TI chipset

It might, it uses a Via chip which is second best in my opinion. Get this
