My i7 machine has onboard firewire but I couldn't make it work, either with the Windows 7 install it came with or with Mandriva 64 bit. It eneded up going back to the dealer who built it. They said it was an incompatibility between the firewire components and the Sony camcorder I was using.
They stuffed a firewire card in and it's been rock solid ever since.
It's an MSI board by the way.
