Thanks Dan.

I only have one port on my laptop which could be firewire.  It is a 4 
pin connector.  My cable is a new 14 ft. Belkin 4 pin to 4 pin cable.  I 
had an idea after reading your answer.  I was wondering how to rule out 
the cable, because I don't want to have to buy another one (they are 
expensieve).  I'll boot into Windows :( and see if it picks up the DV 
camera.  I'll report back to the list if I find anything useful.

Thanks again.

Randall
