    What is IEEE 1394 net Adapter in device manager

     
    I've only had XP pro for a short while. and I noticed that in device manager their are two network cards.

    The nforce one and this firewire one. I disabled the IEEE 1394 one for a couple of weeks and saw no differance.

    What is this for?

    Abit NF7-S

    IEEE 1394 cards can be used as network devices, hence your firewire card (perhaps its on the mb?) also shows up as a nic.
