Does anyone know how to connect two XP systems with 1394? I thought I would have to go into the properties drill down (of the 1394 connection) and manually set the IP address, yet I cannot do this on the second PC as the 1394 does not show in the network connections. I have tested the 1394 port and it works on 1394 devices.
I looked for other replies but couldn't find related articles- bear with me, this is the first time on one of these type of sites where I post things> :o
Appreciate any assistance.

Ok, I tried a third PC and was able to direct connect between #1 and #3. On PC#2 the 1394 adapter is built in to the MB and it is working, for whatever reason it does not show in Network connections. Any clue how to get that resolved?

Nevermind, fixed it.
