Will USB 2.0 and 1.1 Coexist?
If a computer has onboard USB 1.1 and a 2.0 PCI card is added, will the
two work at the same time? I understand that 1.1 devices will only work at 1.1 speed, but can a system handle the two simultaneously? |

speeds...

Will USB 2.0 and 1.1 Coexist?
YES - just done it! (installed USB2 card) Now have 6 USB1 and 2 USB2 ports.
But, be aware of potential problems - following this procedure might save you hours of grief. First - connect an old PS2 mouse and keyboard. Ensure you have NO active USB devices (incl cordless receiver). Having installed USB2 card and drivers and booted, go to System/Device Manager and UNINSTALL every instance of USB - there's quite a few. Close down and re-boot with USB mouse/keyboard/receiver re-connected, if you have them. XP will then re-install USB's the way it wants them - should be trouble free (though I had a little problem with Logitech radio controller - k/b worked, but not mouse - resolved by re-installing Logitech Keyboard driver). Do tell if this helps - sincerely, Len "Raymond J. Johnson Jr." wrote in message ... If a computer has onboard USB 1.1 and a 2.0 PCI card is added, will the two work at the same time?

USB 1.1 devices should of course be put on the 1.1 ports (though they will work on 2.0) reserving 2.0 ports for the things that need it -- Alex Nichol MS MVP (Windows Technologies) Bournemouth, U.K. (remove the D8 bit) |
