Re: Firewire drivers for windows ?

ethernet cards over firewire... how does that work... probably me sound thick but i interpret that as u trying to plug a firewire cable into a network card lol...

me...

i hav a laptop xp-mce and a desktop pc xp-pro.. when i wanna transfer big files wuickly.. i just use a firewire cable 4pin end plugged into my laptop... 6 pin end plugged into my pc... then to transfer the files i just find the ip of the other machine do \\ipaddress then its transfer just like if i was on a normal network...

is that basically wot u wanna be doing but with windows to linux?

one other thing... with vista dropping support for this type of networking... is there any third party driver i can install.. i've got a HP laptop with a Vista upgrade voucher i just pay P&P on and am tihnking og using it...
