Product: OMEN 16.1 inch Gaming Laptop PC 16-b0000 (2W6B3AV)
I`m trying to get a functioning Firewire conection to my laptop.
I've got an Apple Thunderbolt 2 to Firewire 800 dongle.
The laptop does't see it and what's even worse I can't see IEEE 1394 in my device manager.
HP Support states that the IEEE 1394 controllers are not installed in the system but can't provide me any.
Any sugestions?
Thanks!
