Greetings, Listers!! I have a 1.8 gb model 5430US Compaq, couple years  old
that came with USB 1 only. I am considering the purchase of the Belkin  USB
2.0 5 port PCI card as an "addon" to obtain high speed USB. The  card
information specifies use in a PCI 2.1 slot.  What differentiates  the PCI
2.1 slot from the standard PCI slot? And, for those in the know,  should this
card work for me? TIA, Vern.


Hi Vern,

For what it's worth, I just installed a Belkin USB 2.0 4-port PCI  card to my
3 year old WinXP system, and it was recognized right away and the  ports work
fine.  All seems to be running perfectly on mine.
