Firewire cards get flagged up as being a Network adaptor (because of the 1394 network connection) and also appear in Device Manager as a IEE1394 Device Controller. This is normal behaviour.
Thanks for the reply, Neil. Problem is that it is being recognized as the old Intel modem and downloading and installing those drivers as opposed to simply an IEE1394 Device. Also, no IEE1394 device appears anywhere in the Device Manager. The card didn't come with any software or drivers, and the company's website offers none. I'm stumped...

You may need to turn off the AC97 modem in your system BIOS.

No drivers are offered because no drivers are needed under XP for a Firewire card.

Really appreciate your help, Neil. How would I go about doing this?

Somewhere in here may be an option to disable AC97 Modem - usually lives under Integrated Peripherals.
