I'm using an old Fireface800 with Windows 10. My Firewire card uses a Texas Instruments chipset and the default Firewire driver that windows 10 installed was buggy.

I tracked down the legacy firewire driver and now it's rock solid.

Thanks, I'll look at that.

@Pictus I've seen this page but I don't know what to do on Windows 11. Starting from Step 6 doesn't make sense to me.
My driver is OHCI 1394 TI date 2006/06/21 version 10.0.22000.653

I don't know if I should update.

Sorry, I do not have FireWire stuff, but before do anything, create a restore point.

After creating the restore point you can try update.

Here are the details on the legacy driver

1394 OHCI Compliant Host Controller (Legacy)

Driver Provider : Microsoft
Driver Date: 4/01/2013
Driver Version: 6.1.7601.22370
Driver Signer: Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatibility Publisher

It's a newer driver than what you're using. Just try it. It's easy to roll back if it doesn't work.
