Default trouble daisy chaining via firewire

Laptops may be using a 4 wire port and may not be able to
power extra devices. Check the specs on your model.

| my toshiba satellite 5105-s501 running xpPro doesn't
recognize my Canon ZR70MC camcorder when i connect it to my
Firewire800 external hard drive (using any cable or any
port) which is connected to the laptop via firewire. Turn
the hard drive on, it's recognized fine. when i turn the
camera on, the hard drive is no longer recognized, until i
turn the camera off and then the laptop sees the hard drive
again as though it was just connected. what's going on?
i've seen info on windowsupdate about a hotfix that may
apply here (multiple ieeeee1394 devices), but wondering if
there's something else possibly causing the error.
