On-Board FireWire?
This is a discussion about On-Board FireWire? in the Windows Hardware category; I'm trying to source a motherboard for a friend. What he really, really needs is a Athalon board but with on-board FireWire, do they exist? If not, can anybody recommend a good FireWire add-in PCI card and give us a couple of web links? Cheers.

Long time no speaky!
Anyway, how about this:
FC-PGA VIA 594x ATX + Firewire
only £95.00 + VAT from Dabs. It's a Socket 370 board, with a VIA chipset. Not quite what you were after, but not bad to start with.
Alternatively, check out:

It's a write up of the Pyro DV card. You can buy the card from Simply at £69 + VAT
It give 3 firewire ports, and comes with one cable. Beware that cables run for approximately £50 each.
Laters.

Trust you to come up with an answer (Even though I said Athalon and you come up with a VIA Socket 370, but hay we can't all be perfect )

Think the FireWire add-on card is the way for this guy to go.
