I have firewire, i do not have any of the disc that came with the dcrtvr320, can anyone help with this?

You don't need your Camera's Cd/Dvds, simply connect the camera to your computer on the firewire port using the Firewire cable, power on the camera, it'll show up on the "My Computer" If it's not auto detected, try refreshing the my computer page, in most cases, it take time to get it detected by Computer.
Or if it's not detected, there's another problem, maybe the firewire cable or the firewire port. If the Firewire card isn't onboard, try it on another PCI slot or another computer.

Good luck.
