Problems installing Firewire/USB2

So I'm stumped. I little brother is got an IPOD for Hanukkah. He has a home built windows PC, so we needed to get a Firewire card for him to hook up the IPod. When we try to install the firewire card and run the hardware wizard, the install fails. I called the company and they said to exchange it. I get a new card and it does the same thing. I figure the mainboard (epox ep-8k7a+) does not support firewire. I get a USB 2 card and it does the same thing.

I stick the new USB 2 card into my computer and it sets up without a problem. I've dug around and the internet, called a few friends and they are all as stumped as I am.

any ideas on what might be the problem? Thanks…
