Hi Guys,
I am asking this for a friend. He has an older first generation P4 computer, current USB ports on mobo are 1.1 spec. He bought an Adaptec USB 2.0 PCI card and he can't get it to work at 2.0 speeds (480Mbits/sec.), only 1.1 speeds. He figures it is his drivers as he is trying everyone of them from Adaptec home page, to no avail. I am trying to tell him that he can't get USB2.0 Data Transfer Rate because of the PCI bus cannot handle that. The website makes it sound like it can. Can It? Wants to use it for an external HD.
