TITLE: Microsoft Windows XP SP2 Fix for Performance of 1394 Devices (Q885222)

VERSION: 1.00 Rev. A
DESCRIPTION:
This package installs a Microsoft fix for the listed desktop models running the 
Microsoft Windows XP Operating System with Service Pack 2 (SP2). 

This package resolves an issue with the performance of 1394a or 1394b FireWire 
devices connected to a 1394b port. This issue occurs after upgrading to the 
Microsoft Windows XP operating system with SP2. For example, a digital camera 
that uses S400 speed prior to installing SP2 will only use S100 speed after 
upgrading to SP2. This issue occurs because when Microsoft Windows XP with SP2 
is installed, the speed of 1394b ports is changed to S100. 

For more information about this issue, refer to Microsoft Knowledge Base 
article 885222, "Performance of 1394 devices may decrease after you install 
Windows XP Service Pack 2."
