Guess I'm not alone. As far as the logic board goes, a couple of others at apple.com said they did that and the problem returned a couple of days later.

Can't use PCI cause I'm outta slots. I could internally install hard drives, but I still can't use my ADVC-100 DV box.

So I'm buying another comp. Seems an expensive fix for a firewire port.

Guess I'll have to go back to shutting down to to plug/un-plug firewire. Feeling like SCSI days.

Thanks for all the replies, Keith
