I just finished putting a(PYRO PCI 64 from ADS Tech)firewire card in my Dell Dimension 8300 computer with XP PRO.(160Gig HD,1Gig memory) and have started getting error messages. The firewire is for a Sony HDR-HC1 camcorder. The computer recognizes the camcorder and I have captured video from it, so the firewire is working ok.
The only other thing that has been done recently is a Circuit City CD with a 30 day trial of Ulead VideoStudio9, which worked once but since then has an error message stateing "Codec TrialActivation has serious error". There is no uninsall for the trial. I tried the control panel add-remove program tool, but that doesn't do anything. I've thought about deleting the file in My Programs but I am told other programs might be sharing files, and might be affected. I even tried using Restore, but no luck. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Here is the error message:

A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again,follow these steps:
Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed. If this a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer for any Windows updates you might need.
If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and then select Safe Mode.

For a start you can normally ignore the warning messages and just remove the software.
You need to check if the software has a known issue with that hardware, sounds like it does not like it.
Personally after cleaning it off, I would edit the registry and delete any entries asscoiated with the software as well.
Then make sure you have the latest drivers available for the card as well, do an update on MS and do a manual install to see what updates it has for you.

Generally those screens originate from software drivers and not hardware, make sure windows is fully up to date, and that the software for the card is up to date as well, and try if you can, using a different program.
