Mid repair report: Lost my firewire curse + a deal
#1
http://forums.macresource.com/read/1/330755

dual G5 2.0, no FW 400 or 800

still havent been able to fix it -- booted from another internal drive, tried another user, unplugged everything for 10 minutes, reset PMU, cant find my hardware repair disc, TTPro doesnt see the firewire 400 or 800 bus

stopped by frys and bought a generic 2 port FW PCI card, picture had 3 external + 1 internal port, $19 -- check out was $12.99 + $5 rebate = $9 total =)

got home -- card in box was 2 port external, 1 port internal, bah

plugged it in, no software to install, worked instantly

still not sure why my FW isnt working, dont have time to diagnose right now...
