PC Card .......2007-06-10

The card did not work with Windows XP SP2. I returned the card and have not heard back nor received a refund.

Not enough power for external HDD drives.......2007-05-12

Would not power my 160GB WD external drive, even when this card is powered via the PS2 port on my 3yr old Dell notebook. Is it the card? is it the notebook? I don't know, but I know this item is sitting around un-used, along with my 160GB hard drive. I'd suggest a) going with a better solution, whatever that may be and 2) return the device asap if it does work!

Works, but not powered.......2007-05-02

The card was recognized and installed on a Compaq NC6000 with XP Pro properly.

The included power cable does not connect to the PS/2 port, but to another USB port. I am going to try using a USB AC charger to power the card. Without external power, ports do not work with iPod Shuffle 2nd Gen. A Lexmark X1175 printer device will spontaneously appear and disappear, and Microsoft Mouse would hang intermittently.

Great product .......2007-03-31

Its a great product the reason I dont give 5 stars is that use a Via usb controller.

Work well when there is no power issue........2007-01-23

I'm quite happy that I don't seem to have the USB2.0 installation problem posted in another review. This adapter works plug-n-play. The transfering speed shows a USB2.0 speed, about 2 mins to transfer around 900MB data.

Not quite happy about:
1. After plug in this adapter, my existing USB ports sometimes fail to be recognized as USB2.0. But since they're not too stable already (my main reason to buy this adapter) and about to die, I don't care too much.

2. It only works with flash mem, mouse, and maybe other devices that don't drain much power. It refuses to take any of my external USB HDs. The included power cable doesn't work for me. According to some description I found online, that cable is used to get power from PS/2 port, which is not quite common to be found in nowadays laptops.
