bhahaha $120.

If you have this series (P-7807u FX) then you have a firewire port on your computer. This cord should work http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812189107

Now Im not sure what you meant by I ordered a firewire and all I got was a USB.. Im guessing you meant you thought you ordered a firewire but instead ordered a usb cable.

BUT the real question is why are you rewinding on a Vx2k?
