Buck,
did you update DirectX after installing the FireWire card?
Are all your codecs up to date? I remember that a certain codec pack
caused havoc when I first installed my FireWire / Sony digicam
combination.
I've had several months worth of trouble trying to get everything working,
so I feel your pain!
Contact me off-list if you want a more detailed list of suggestions (all
of which I tried, with success at the end ;-)
HTH,

[PCTECH] Windows XP BSOD - how to debug?
I had an extremely stable Windows XP system (reboot only on Windows
Patch Tuesday for more than two years).
Went through a strange series of events involving a new PSU and
installing video driver to get a new video camera working (I can give
the details if that will help.) Now, the machine will Blue Screen
almost every day at apparently random moments, often overnight when it's
not being used. Rolled the display driver back, un-installed the
Firewire card, but still BSODs. Several different BSODs, too.
Any thoughts on how to debug this? I really don't want to wipe the
machine and start again. The wife has a lot of software I'd rather not
track down and reinstall.
