If you have an Asus computer, you may have a program called AI Suite 3 installed. This is a legitimate program installed by default on many Asus computers, but it can take control of the Firewire port in your computer so that other programs can't use it. This causes the error message above to appear.
Uninstalling AI Suite 3 won't prevent the error message from appearing. Only a complete reinstallation of Windows without AI Suite 3 will definitely prevent the message from appearing and free up the Firewire port.
