    First thanks for the answer and the usful link,and yes i have a very simmilar annoying noise like the video....Secondly i just bought a pci-e Firewire card with Texas Intruments chip from Unibrain and i can say that the noise is less now but is not gone for sure.So i have to find a real good 1394 cable with ferrite and triple shiled and try again....But did i miss something?Do you have any of the same expirience?

    Thanks
