It's an XP registry protection prob.

It's common.

You have to go to run/start
andtype regedit. Then go here.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\PCI

Under this, you'll see VEN_xxxxxxx

Click on each one, until u find your firewire card
and click on it/permissions then tick full control
then reboot. It should install the drivers for it.

The only thing is, any other PCI cards you
install, may bring up that data is invalid again.

You'll have to do the same thing as above.

The only way to fix it, is to reinstall XP

This may or may not fix it.
