    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Ionico 12th gen and Thunderbolt

    I did not apprectiate the difference but yes, I ordered a copy of windows with the laptop. I assumed if you did not pay for Windows it would have Windows on it. As mentioned in my post I think I know why it did not work now, however, and it was as Spyder tracks suggested because the Apple...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Ionico 12th gen and Thunderbolt

    It turns out that the Apple Thunderbolt to Firewire does not work on Windows after all! It works on my old Thunderbolt 3 laptop, but I have been trying to use it on a Thunderbolt 4 desktop system and it will not been seen at all.

    The Iconio was as it came installed from PC Specialists. The older laptop has been reinstalled a few times and has Intel Thunderbolt drivers installed. I tried the latter on the Iconio but there was no change. The Apple FireWire-Thunderbolt adaptor does not need any drivers, if Thuunderbolt...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Ionico 12th gen and Thunderbolt

    I have just bought a 12th gen Ionico laptop which said in the specs it has Thunderbolt 4. I am trying to use a Thunderbolt to FireWire adaptor with it but nothing shows up in the system settings when plugged in and nothing says Thunderbolt anywhere. Does this model actually have Thunderbolt 4...
