I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to computers and I have a question
regarding the possibility of upgrading to USB 2.0. I have a box
running the following:
Win98 (which I need to upgrade to 2000 or XP)
Pentium III 550 processor
256 mb ram
20 gb hard drive (of which only about 5 is used)
I have two USB 1.0 ports on my motherboard and I'm being led to
believe that I need a new mother board to upgrade to USB 2.0. That
seems crazy to me. Is this true? Is it not possible to buy a card I
can install that will give me the ports I need (for mp3 loading)? If
so, is there a specific brand or type to look for? I have a few PCI
and AGP slots open.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
