[QUOTE="Badger, post: 32792"] Since the computer has the same problem when it starts from a system CD the problem is probably mechanical/electrical. It seems that power levels are OK after the machine boots (and a power-only device - the light - works normally) so the problem seems related to the port's data initialisation during the bootup. I know that firewire ports occassionally can be revived by starting up with the programmer's reset depressed. I have no idea if that would help here. Badger [/QUOTE]
Verification
Ninety five, eighty five, 16, forty eight, 74 or ninety six: which of these is the largest?
