Title: Didn't work for me
Review: I inserted this card into my P4 2.4Ghz PC running Win XP Pro and then hooked to my Sony DCR-HC40. The camcorder was recognized, however, the connection was lost after several minutes, then the connection was regained if I turn the camcorder off and back on or unplug and replug the firewire cable. I used Adobe Premiere Pro to capture video, about 100 frames were dropped during 3 minutes capturing then connection was lost for no reason. Amazon replaced my card, the new card was even worse, my camcorder was not even recognized. I bought a Belkin 1394 PCI card and a Belkin 1394 cable. Voila! No problem anymore, camcorder was immediately recognized and the connection stays for ever, and no frame was dropped at all during like 50 minutes capturing. Comparing this card and cable to Belkin ones, these are obviously cheap made and the quality is unstable. Some buyers may not have any problem at all, but I just had bad luck and got the lemons.
Is the review positive or negative?
