Summary: DONT BUY THIS JUNK
Review: I have a new gateway machine- I bought the card from gateway and with the card installed the computer will not shut down or sleep. Initially the computer wouldn't shut down or sleep but flashing the BIOS and updating the Intel chipset drivers and changing settings in the BIOS now lets the machine be shut down. Still can't sleep though and neither will you!
D-Link has NO support and even thought this is a widespread problem with this card you will find no mentionn or help for this problem.

Summary: Easy to Install and Priced Right
Review: I have an Athlon 800 on an Asus MB home built running Win2k. I popped the card in and powered up. There was a short message on the BIOS screen and Windows started. Since no dialog boxes appeared, I thought that the card didn't install, but looking at devices, there it was, running normally! I plugged in my scanner and everything worked fine.I comes with a 6 to 4 pin firewire, so if you're hooking up printers or scanners, be sure to order a 6 to 6 pin cable. Painless install, good price makes a great product!

Summary: Firewire
Review: I have an HP, with a W2000 operating system, and the card worked great with my Yamaha CD burner. The software required for the Firewire card was included in the W2000 OS, so you should be able to install the card and fire it up after restart.

Summary: It just doesn't work!
Review: I have several different brand 1394 cards for my business; The D-Link is one I brought for my personal use. It is terrible! It is slow, it often looses connections, and it doesn't work with certain devices. Just to make sure I didn't have a bad unit, I switched it out with second one. It unit didn't work either. I have several of them and they all have the same horrible functionality. Buy an Adaptec or a PYRO, or a SIIG. They are far superior!

Summary: Utterly Worthless Card
Review: I have tried two of these cards from Amazon, and neither has worked with my Dell 8100 running Windows 2000. Eventually, not having endless time to resolve the problems, and getting sluggish and frankly useless tech-support from DLink via their website, I gave up and am getting a refund. Don't waste your time on this worthless piece of junk.

Summary: Does not work with W98 SE either
Review: I have windowns 98SE. After I install this card,
the computer will not shutdown. Doing shutdown, will only
cause the computer to reboot, have to unplug cord to power off.

Summary: Forget it with Windows ME
Review: I just received this card and was very excited about it. After 4+ hours of calls to D-Link, Dell, and Microsoft, noone can help me install it so that all the DLL files are actually found. I give up...returns here we come.

Summary: D-Link Firewire Card + WIN98SE PC + iPod = Tunes-to-go
Review: I put this DFW-500 FireWire PCI card in my 4.5 year old Windows 98 SE PC and XPlay software let's me put my MP3s on my iPod. It took some work. This is, after all, making enemies live/work together in harmony. Not recommended for rank beginners, the getting-a-PC-to-see-the-iPod part. The FireWire card installation was easy.
