Summary: Won't work with iPod
Review: The card installs quickly right out of the box and Windows 2000
recognized it without loading any other drivers.
Unfortunately, the TI chipset used in these cards seems to have
some issues identifying the iPod player. The exact error message
is that the device failed to start and I get a Code 10 error.
So, even though this may be a great card, I'm sending mine back

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Works like a charm
Review: The card worked great but the software included for capture [stunk]. I think it's the same with all cards, they always give you the ... software for free. In this case, it was the Ulead Video Studio software, but the 'SE' version, not the good stuff.

But as for the card, I just put it in, booted back to Windows XP, it detectd the card and away I went. I didn't even need to give it my driver CD.

Since it included a firewire cable, I didn't have to purchase one either.

Summary: should be called firestarter card
Review: This card fried 2 motherboards - the first, after I tried to install it myself, and the second after the computer shop technician tried. The tech actually noticed smoke coming out of the computer. A call to D-Linktech support revealed (surprise) that "our card doesn't do that." My next call is to the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Stay away from this product!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Card
Review: This card works very well with our Sony DCR-PC110 digital video camera. I had no problems downloading video into the movie maker software that comes with WindowsME and editing a few clips together. I haven't spent a lot of time playing with it, but it has worked flawlessly for us so far.

Summary: Does not work with Windows 98
Review: When I called tech support after I couldn't make it work, they said I need 98 SE. I chose this card because the tech data lists win 98, 98 SE, 2000.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What a piece of crap!
Review: Who would I recommend this product to? Windows 98 users who won't be upgrading to ME.

The product will not work with Windows ME, period. I called tech support, there was nothing they could do. There are NO drivers available for this product on Windows ME. If you trying installing the drivers, it will freeze your pc every time you turn on your dv camcorder. I recommend Windows ME users do NOT buy this device, as D-LINK corp obviously DOES NOT care at all about their customers using a more recent version of Windows.

I certainly thought I was getting a bargain deal when buying this from Amazon.Com. Boy was I wrong!
