Is it on VCR mode?
Is the firewire card installed properly?
Is the wire in all the way?

Maybe you didn't push the firewire card far enough into the slot.
Otherwise try restarting your computer, that might fix it.

I actaully have the same sort of problem.... My firewire worked great until I got my new cam.. now it takes a while to get it work... sometimes it doesnt read sometimes it does... sometimes I have to push it in hard. Anybody know if I need a new firewire or is it the computer or camera?

Don't use USB Matt. Buy a firewire, the quality will be a shitload better.
