USB Question.

[jamespatrick]

I have a 1.0 USB port on my computer and want to have a 2.0. But I dont want to install one. Is there anything that can plug into the old port and run as a 2.0 one.

Sorry, I am not very good with computers yet.

i dont know if you can just plug something into your USB 1.0 to make it 2.0.

you will probably have to buy a Pci Usb card like this,
http://www.amazon.co.uk/4-Port-Inte...0000WWP60/ref=pd_sbs_ce_5/203-0340623-1511175

They are so cheap and so easy to install.
all you have to do is open up your case and install it into a free Pci slot

The computer is a laptop. Does that make any difference?

Take a look at these if yours is a laptop. Just make sure its says usb 2.0 compliant before buying.
