Hi all, I recently upgraded my hard drive and added a fire wire card and started getting this error message too. I have an ASUS A7S333 board. Found a very simple solution to the problem as it relates to PnP. see http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/0,,sid9_gci213947,00.html Went into BIOS setup and on Boot Menu changed Plug & Play O/S setting from default of No to Yes.

On rebooting system received message ESCD updated successfully and have not received any error messages on subsequent boots. Hope this helps. James
