Alrighty,so a couple weeks ago I purchased a 410 for my powermac g5 1.8 SP right out the box it did not work computer would not reconize it. I tried reinstalling the drivers numerous times and bought a new cable still nothing. Tech support suggested upgrading from 10.3.7 to 10.3.9. Before I did this I sent the 410 back and got a new one in the meantime I did the software upgrades.
I have never had anything else plugged into the computer that is firewire. The device does power I get the flashing blue light. When I go to the system profile I get no information for the device tree but only if the 410 is plugged in without it it's normal. The only thing I can think of is the firewire port on the computer is bad but I'm having a hard time comprehending that since it's new and I never used it before and it does power the device. Anyone got any advice before I lug the computer out to have the firewire tested? Similiar problem? Thanks. |

QUOTE (martiansrevenge @ Aug 26 2005, 20:41) The device does power I get the flashing blue light. Not to be a jerk or anything, but did you switch the power for the 410 on? You're correct in that the (slow) flashing blue light indicates a firewire link between the 410 and your G5, a solid blue light indicates that the 410 will actually "work" (ie: audio in and out). I've had some problems beating the 410 into shape with my iMac G5 running Tiger, but I think I've figured out most of it's idiosyncrasies. |
