Hi Terra, If the motherboard and the operating system doesn't support the 2.0 standard, useing a 2.0 USB card would be a waste of time. HTH, Richard Q.

I have an older computer that only has USB 1.1 ports on it, and was thinking of getting a USB 2.0 PCI card. I have read conflicting information though, and want to make sure before I buy one that it will work. I read in one place that if your mother board doesn't support USB 2.0, that putting a USB 2.0 card in will not make any difference and that you will have USB 1.1 transfer speeds. Another article didn't say anything about that, and said it would work if you just put a USB 2.0 PCI card in the computer. How do I tell if this is something that will work before i buy the card? email and MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/BlindComputing.php If you wish to join the JAWS Users List send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/BlindComputing.php If you wish to join the JAWS Users List send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
