Devices with Windows XP
This article describes the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) 1394 standard and how to use IEEE 1394 with Microsoft Windows XP.
No Video When Using IEEE
1394 Camera in NetMeeting
When you try to start an IEEE 1394-compliant digital camera in Microsoft NetMeeting or Microsoft PhoneDialer, NetMeeting and PhoneDialer do not display any video image. Back to Top

Two Digital Camcorders
Connected to Two Different IEEE 1394 Adapters
When you connect two digital video camcorders to two different Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IEEE) 1394 adapters and you are running in the Camera mode, the first camcorder you attach to the computer may work correctly, but the second camcorder may not work correctly. Although you may be able to switch between the two camcorders in Microsoft Movie Maker, you may only be able to obtain a picture from the first camcorder. Back to Top
IEEE 1394 or USB CD-ROM or
DVD-ROM Drive May Not Be Recognised
Under the following conditions, your IEEE 1394 or USB CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive may not be recognized: You hot-plug your IEEE 1394 or USB CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive. Your CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive contains CD-ROM media when you connect it to your computer. Back to Top
IEEE 1394 Device
Detection Fails When System Resumes
When an IEEE 1394 storage device, such as a CD-ROM or external disk drive, is connected to your Windows XP Service Pack 1 (SP1)-based system, the device-detection process may not work after the systems resumes from standby or hibernation. Therefore, the device does not work. Back to Top
