IEEE 1394 driver won't reinstall

Hello experts,

I have an AG-DVC 30 Panasonic mini DV video camera connected to the computer through an IEEE 1394 fire wire cable.

Everything was going fine until one day (I suspect my anti-virus) without warning the AVC driver was disabled and the camera was no longer recognized when connected.

I tried to reinstall the driver and got the following message:

“There was a problem installing this hardware

IEEE 1394 AV device

An error occurred during the installation of the device

the I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request"

I read somewhere that the problem could be due to a specific Windows service “Security Center”. That service was preventing the driver to download and reinstall.

I made a first attempt by disabling the service and it worked. But then the problem occurred again and disabling “Security Center” won’t help.

I also tried to disable my firewall. That won’t work either.

Can someone help please ?

Michel
