With SP3 the default speed for IEEE1394b is
S100 (100 Mbit/s). A download and registry
modification is available from Microsoft to
restore performance to either S400 or S800.
Note: The Microsoft Windows IEEE1394 driver
only supports IEEE1394a.
For IEEE1394b use either the FirePackage or
install the driver provided with the IEEE1394
Bus Driver Package. (Both drivers replace the
Microsoft OHCI IEEE1394 driver, but the
second is 100% compliant to the driver from
Microsoft. This way, applications using the
MS1394 driver will continue to work).

Microsoft Windows Vista including SP1/SP2
supports IEEE1394b only with S400.
Note: The Microsoft Windows IEEE1394 driver
only supports IEEE1394a.
For IEEE1394b use either the FirePackage or
