Am trying to find a JMICRON 1394 OHCI Compliant Host Controller driver for my old Pavilion dv5, can't find it anywhere, if someone knows anywhere safe to download please help with the link.

Hi:

This should be the driver you need...

It didn't work, maybe am the one not understanding the problem, Eject IEEE 1394 controller appears in the Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media section of the Taskbar notification area, all the ones that appeared there cleared after I installed their drivers, I knew it was JMICRON after I did a search of the Vender id PCI\VEN_197B&DEV_2380&SUBSYS_3603103C&REV_00
PCI\VEN_197B&DEV_2380&SUBSYS_3603103C
PCI\VEN_197B&DEV_2380&CC_0C0010
PCI\VEN_197B&DEV_2380&CC_0C00

but am not able to find its driver, I already have drivers for the JMICRON Card Reader

According to your screenshot, there is nothing wrong with the device.

If it needed a driver, there would be a little ! mark next to it.

If you click on the device properties, if it reports working properly, then it is what it is.

Then why does it show as a Removable Media, even the card reader and hard disk appeared there but disappeared when i installed JMICRON driver and Intel Rapid Storage Technology, that's why  I think it might disappear when I find the driver but if there is no known driver i'll just leave it.

There is no specific JMicron driver for it.

That is a standard controller that Microsoft installs after you install the SD card reader driver.

I have an old notebook with the same device listed, but my notebook has the Ricoh SD card reader, so when I click on the IEEE 1394 Host Controller, it reports it to be a Ricoh 1394 OHCI Compliant Host Controller.
