If not, either you have a bad 1394 driver or bad firewire hardware. If other gear works when connected, you may need to to a firmware update on your JVC camera. You can get that from JVC's Pro portion of the website. Also, check if the camera will connect to another computer successfully. If so, again something's up with your laptop. If not, you should send it in for servicing as your firewire input is most likely bad.</p> <p>Good luck.</p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/pc-not-recognising-jvc-camcorder#post-43830 Thu, 12 Feb 2009 16:30:38 +0000 malcvxer 43830@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>New to this Forum so hope you guys can assist!!  I cannot get my PC (or my laptop!) (both running XP) to recognise my JVC firewire port.  Nothing happens when its connected.  I have tried the following:</p> <p>The computer has two firewire ports (back and front) - all seem OK when connected to Laptop</p> <p>I've tried two different JVC cams: DVM5 and DVX10</p> <p>Have also tried - two firewire cables (in case one was US) and also a 4 pin to pin into the laptop</p> <p>I've tried all the remedies I can find on various forums (including the JVC one which says reinstall Direct X) - all to no avail.  The crazt thing is that I'm sure I've connected Ok before with the same kit.  Analog capture just inst an option so can anyone help please??</p>
