Need to know the IEE 1394 chipset on HPE-112Y

[Brad19571]

Can't seem to find the specs for this firewire chipset.  Am having a conflict with a Yamaha musical instrument.  Need to compare to list of known issues from Yamaha.

Thanks,

Brad

Hi!, @Brad19571:

Welcome to HP Forum ! 

Please, delete the S/N (Serial Number) what you write.

dont understand why I needed to remove the serial number?

It was a "request" from that other person, because it is NOT "normal" to post the serial-number of YOUR specific hardware onto this forum.

Do a Google-search for 'download free SPECCY'.

Download and install SPECCY, and run it.

It will display _much_ details about the hardware on your specific computer -- hopefully the "FireWire" information.

Or, open the Windows "Device Manager", and double-click on your FireWire device.

Switch to the 'Details' tab, and scroll-through all the available "details" for your device.

Neither Speccy or system properties (just showed: 1394 OHCI Compliant Host Controller) have helped.  Already tried different drivers .......if I look AT the motherboard (take the time to open case) will the chipset have identifying marks?

Oh well, anyway, thanks for the help.

Feeling a little stupid here.  For some reason I was under the impression that there were sub-chipsets that would control the FireWire .   Thanks!

And, of course, my post just above is correct.  The chipset for the Iee 1394 controller is written on the chip.  In my case, it was a VIA 6308s.  Which is now compatible with my instrument after running a utility provided (almost hidden, in a separate folder) in the Yamaha Firewire Download package.  The YFWS Utility allowed me to reset the driver from a small (default) buffer to a medium (in my case) or large, if needed, to adjust my system requirements to match my FW16E card in my instrument.  Works like a charm now with now glitches and dropouts.

Hope this helps someone.
