This review is from: Rosewill RC-504 - PCIe FireWire 1394a Card - 2 + 1-Port (Two External + One Internal)
Pros:
Installed automatically in Windows 7-64.
Cons:
Crashed Windows 8-64.
Overall Review:
I bought the card to be able to upload video from an HDV camcorder to a Windows 8 desktop. It crashed the desktop. Windows wouldn't start. I only got a black screen. I removed the card but the problem persisted. I had to disconnect everything and remove and reinstall the RAM for the system to boot.
I then installed the card in a Windows 7-64 desktop. It installed automatically and everything works fine.
