We have the latest driver in an old HP laptop running Windows 7 and my question is would rolling back to an older driver perhaps resolve this issue?
Hi Leo,
Sorry to hear of your troubles, and whilst I don't have specific experience with that camera, perhaps by way of diagnostics that might help lead you down the path to a solution to your problem, consider:

1. Does that laptop boot OK with the camera disconnected?
2. Do you have another firewire cable you could use to test if it is a cable fault?
3. Did the camera previously work on that laptop?
4. Are you able to test the camera on another PC or laptop?

Good luck in the hunt.

Best
JA
