Firewire Drivers for Canon DV?

from Howard Winer (iamhow@yahoo.com)
Help! I'm no dummy when it comes to video or computers as I work at a TV station. However, I'm new to doing things at home and this one has me really befuddled. I borrowed a friend's Canon ZR40 mini-dv to firewire some video into my pc. One problem: I keep getting an install error. XP says it can't find the AV/C Subunit driver.

I've done tons of searching, I do have avc.sys, etc. Now what? I have an emachines T2200, it has FOUR firewires and I've tried two of them with no difference in outcomes. I've search the emachines, canon and microsoft sites but none has anything helpful. The canon site says the firewire hardware is where the drivers should be, but I find nothing about it on emachines as their hardwired to the motherboard.

Any ideas? Avid Xpress, Vegas, Premiere, none of them recognize the DV Cam. Thanks, -howard
