It's A Snap [Posted on 2006-01-12]
How much can one say? This card installed flawlessly and requires no driver installation (must have XP SP1 at minimum). Had it up and working < 5 minutes. No problems to report since.

Worked Perfect, PC Recognized Card Instantly [Posted on 2006-02-23]
I installed the card and crossed my fingers hoping for the best. My computer is a few years old but has Windows XP. The Old Dell instantly recognized the new Belkin USB 2.0 Hi-Speed 3-Port ( 2 external & 1 internal ports) PCI Card. My new Canon Pixma 780 printer plugged right into the port and started working at wonderfully fast speeds. It makes a big difference and I was impressed that Belkin got it right and my old Dell Desktop instantly recognized the card and took care of the installation.
I would hope everybody has the same luck I had with the installaton of this fine product.

Works with Mac [Posted on 2006-02-26]
I was apprehensive about getting a USB 2 card for Mac. I hear a lot of stories about not being able to wake the computer when it goes into sleep mode.

This one has worked well without any issues so far.

It Plugged, Played, and Crashed my Machine [Posted on 2007-05-24]
I installed this on a white box PC built on a P4iY Fire Dragon Motherboard with P4 2Ghz. I installed it mainly to work on someone elses Laptop 2.5" hard drive in one of those USB 2.0 hard drive boxes.

It worked ok for that purpose but I started having random video problems and half boot-ups with the desktop locking up during boot at the desktop and various points of drawing the desktop screen.

I finished the laptop hard drive work using this thing and shipped it for payment. Then I kept having system lockup problems. One early morning we took a power glitch and at automatic reboot after power off (my BIOS setting: Power on after Power Fail) the hard drive boot was hosed. So I ended up recovering my own computer and hard drive (data recovery) after recovering someone elses laptop hard drive (my customer).

So I bought a new hard drive and re-installed XP Pro. I recover my data off the hosed HD. And I still have very often system locking up problems in Windows XP Pro. And problems at boot at the desktop (hangs up).

So I removed the last piece of hardware that was NEW. The Belkin USB 2.0 Hi-Speed 3-Port PCI card. I don't know why this was happening. I don't see any conflicts. The Soyo P4IY Fire Dragon Motherboard does have built-in USB host controller with several ports, and I have a Belkin 4-port USB 1.x hub ... Microsoft USB Keyboard, Microsoft USB Mouse, and another thing I added lately a SATA hard drive controller card.

I'm not sure how I came about this problem... just lucky I guess. I'll have to trouble shoot it more later (when I can afford to crash the heck out of this computer working on it, which might be a long time from now.)

So for now it's outa there. I'm not saying it's a bad product. But it does show that everything doesn't work in any machine with any other hardware around. There can still be conflicts (imagine? in 2007?)
