Hi, I need some old 1394 driver related files from xp sp1.cab. Any one
still have that around on their drive? I need ohci1394.sys, 1394bus.sys

from c:\windows\driver cache\i386\sp1.cab on a PC that has a pre sp2
install; should be there even if sp2 was added later. I need this in
order to override the XP auto driver replacement so I can put a custom
driver on my 1394 port. Thanks for any help on this!!
