Here's the firewire compatibility list:

You may want to open a support ticket if you're still having trouble.

Looks like the computer does not have a firewire card installed. you can also download the free utility, latencymon, and run that to get an idea of the problem.

Even if you have a built-in Firewire port, the unit only works with Texas Insturments chipsets. (I had the same issue, and that's what Presonus Tech Support told me.) If that is the case, you have to get an Express card with the appropriate chipset.

Once I did that everything worked beautifully.

I have the exact same problem. But in my case it first stopped working after windows 10 update. Until update everything was working just fine..

I have got the Texas chipset, Ive bought new cable, ran newest driver etc.

Now there is no connection at all and I get the same screendump.
