Review on 🔌 Syba PCIe 1.1 x1 Card - 3 Port IEEE 1394 Firewire 1394B & 1394A, TI XIO2213B Chipset, Requires Legacy Driver for Windows 8 10 by Wanick Palermo

Based on the recommendations and reviews I saw here I decided to buy one of these PCI-E cards as my new MB obviously didn't come with 1394. This was done to connect an M-Audio Firewire device. The device is not working. If you install older OHCI drivers, it works somewhat (it hangs every few minutes instead of not working at all). I literally spent over a day getting this map to work. Nothing makes it work reliably. Before I switched systems and bought this card, I had WIN 7 and FireWire on the motherboard, which worked fine. I was frustrated getting this Firewire to work, but I gave up on this Syba card. While I know the card could help someone, it didn't exactly come cheap for something that doesn't work. Now it's basically a useless paperweight. I would stay away from this and any other clone that looks like him. I'll try to find another card that actually works.
