Problem with DMK41AF02 on my MacBook Pro

Hi

I'm trying to use my DMK41AF02 on my new MacBook Pro (running Windows XP).

I've installed the latest drivers, and the camera is recognised, but it says "Error: Live Mode could not be started. Please make sure no other program uses this device and that there is enough bandwidth on your firewire bus available".

My MacBook Pro has the 9-pin 800mb firewire connection, so I bought a 5 metre 9-pin to 6-pin cable, and expected that the DMK41AF02 could get power through that.

Is that correct?

I've also tried 2 different powered firewire Hubs.

9-pin in the Macbook Pro to 6 pin in the powered hub, then 6-pin to 6-pin from the Hub to the DMK41AF04.

In both cases, the device is recognised and I choose it from the list, but I get the same error message each time.

So whether I use a powered Hub or not, I get the error message.

Please help!

What might the problem be?

Cheers
