I confirmed by going into Device Manager and found same entry in Imaging Device section. I ran back to market and bought 4PIN TO 4PIN Firewire Cable for $1.5Īt first trial, trust me, it detected "SONY DV Camcorder" and installed drivers automatically. While reading the PDF manual found on Sony Support site, trust me, I found those golden words "USE ONLY 4PIN TO 4PIN i.Link Cable for Firewire connection." Then I started from scratch, TO DECIDED TO READ MANUAL. Even tried a lot on Internet for the solution but it seems no one knew. I tried everything an expert would do, but got only frustration. It was even showing DV-IN on camera LCD with this 6pin to 4pin cable. I was trying to connect with same cable 4pin at camera end and 6pin on PCI Card, with no luck. It came with 6pin to 4pin Firewire cable(Sony calls it i.Link). My vista system was not able to detect my Handycam with a very very cheap FIREWIRE PCI Card I bought in local market for only $4, yes four dollars. I had similar problem with my Sony Digital8 (also called HI8 ) handycam.
