Default *Fixed* my Noise and connection problems with MBox Pro2

Hi guys!!

Well after alot of trouble shooting, I finally found a soulution for me that works great!

I have a Alienware M17x R2 (Beast), running windows 7 64Bit.
I had my Mbox pro hooked up via the firewire mini plug.
I had this MB Pro2 working with another laptop, no problems with the mini connection.
Aleast not until I got the Alienware.
After every software fix I could find on here, I finally broke down and bought a Rosewill TI 2 Ports IEEE 1394a 6-pin ExpressCard Model RC-612.
Holy crap!! I plugged it in and it's been connected and running great ever since!
I had tried all the legacy firewire drivers I read about and they would sometimes work for 10 or 15 mins.
It was all due to the chipset of the firewire card, the Rosewill is TI chipset.
I honestly figured that as much as my new laptop costed it could'nt be it, boy was I wrong.
So now for 25 bucks, my system is running like a million bucks!!
I am once again a happy camper!!

Sorry about the long scatter brained post!
