Features: A huge headache [Posted on 2008-05-09] This adapter didn't work in my PC, an Intel D845-PESV. None of the high-speed USB ports on the motherboard work right either. The CP Technologies card works okay with low-speed devices, but I bought it to use with high-speed devices. When in use, Windows gives messages that the high-speed device is not plugged into a high-speed port, even though it is. When I try to run a high-speed device, such as a memory stick or a USB hard drive, the system crashes (blue screen of death) when performing high-speed operations. Of course by the time I figured all this out, my 30 days were up and Amazon won't take it back. I don't know if I have a defective unit or if CP's design is bad.
Works great with Corsair flash [Posted on 2008-05-30] I had problems with my new 16 Gig Corsair Flash voyager and was ready to send it back to Amazon when I discovered my other brand USB card was not working right. I installed this card and the Corsair worked great. It also cured a few other USB issues I was having but was just living with. I have 3 computers that are older (2001 vintage) and I bought one for every computer. I have Canon laser and ink jet printers, office jet printers, hard drives, flash memory, mobile phone connections, and a Microtek scanner all working excellently with these cards. This card was a snap to install with Win XP as it already has all the drivers. I now own 4 of these and they are a great buy for the price. Just my 2 cents worth!
Didn't work [Posted on 2008-08-17] I tried to replace a USB 1 port with this. It wasnt' picked up by XP so I installed the driver sent with it. It just kept locking up my machine so I reinstalled the USB 1 and just live with the speed. A wast of 20 bucks. First product I've gotten through Amazon that was worth less. Still love Amazon.
Works great [Posted on 2008-08-29] This card installed easily and has performed well for about 3 months now. I installed it into an HP machine about 2 years old. No problems whatsoever.
no luck with this board [Posted on 2008-11-23] It could just be some incompatability with my Biostar 8668 motherboard, but this USB board caused havoc. The system with this board installed acted strangely, locking up, re-booting all by itself sometimes, sometimes it would suddenly give me the Blue Screen of Death. I wound up buying new DRAM upgrades and the "slow USB" message I was getting from my ATT U-verse 2-Wire USB wireless adapter went away.
