you can buy the card that has the firewire port built into it off of a site like newegg.com or even like dell if thats the type of computer you have. i dont think its very hard to install and they arent that expensive

firewire is like a highspeed usb port.  it hasn't caught on as well obviously.  but just get a card from newegg, plug it into your pci slot, and you are pretty much set

as for any further questions.
