USB 1.1 is slow.\n\nUSB 2.x is much, much faster.\n\nI'm not a computer geek, but it sounds like you would have to replace the 1.1 card.

Get a USB Cross-directional cable. Hook it up to a USB port on both computers. Then find some software to aid in transferring.

First thing, you need to provide more information in order for a definative answer to given.\n  I checked the www site for Buslink\n\n http://www.buslink.com/B1/c_table.shtml\n\nthey have several flavors of external hard drive in the mix, USB 1, USB 2, Firewire, Serial ATA etc....\nDepending on the Model of your particular drive and assuming you have the proper interface on the new computer ie... USB 1, USB 2, etc.. You most likely just need to download the proper driver in order for it to work. You should be able to obtain the driver on the www site I listed above, just identify your external drive by model and download the appropriate driver, once downloaded install the driver, it will likely require a re-boot.\nNOTE: Most USB Devices 1.0 or 2.0 require that the device NOT be connected when you install the driver files. You install the drivers and once installation is completed and computer restarted connect the device and your computer should do a short initialization/installation of the device.\nOne more note: If your computer supports USB 2.0 the hardware drivers may and may not have it configured properly, a large number of PC's as pre-configured have the USB set up as USB 1, in order to have it recognised as USB 2 you may have to visit the Computer Manufacturers www site to obtain a patch to enable USB 2, the drivers for USB 2 are provided By Microsoft, but again they may not install without a patch from the Manufacturer making your USB 2 be set up as USB 1. In any case USB 2 devices tend to be backward compatible with USB 1 and will install and operate on it although at a lower data transfer speed.\n If you have any further questions feel free to contact me at fsebentley@direcway.com

Plug pen into USB port. \n\nOpen Windows Explorer to find out what drive letter has been assigned to the USB drive. Close Windows explorer. \n\nClick Start > Run and type in "cmd" without the quotes. Click OK. \n\nUse "cd C:&#92;" without the quotes if you are not already at the C:> prompt. \n\nAt the C:> prompt, type "CHKDSK X: /F" without the quotes where X = the drive letter of the USB drive. The space before /F is important. Press enter. \n\nIf you are asked questions like "Convert lost chains into files?" answer all such questions "Y" without the quotes and press enter. \n\nOnce finished with CHKDSK type at the C:> prompt "DEL X:&#92;File*.chk" without the quotes where X = the drive letter assigned to the USB drive. \n\nClose the dos command window and open Windows Explorer. Find your USB drive and open it. Delete any other files that you do not want. \n\n\nALWAYS use the icon on the system tray to close down the USB drive before removing it!!!!! \n\nNEVER format the USB drive. Windows will apply a different file allocation table than what the drive came with.\n\n-Quoted from newcentaur

You would need to buy a hard drive caddy, similar to this.\n\nhttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/USB-2-0-HDD-HARD-DISK-DRIVE-CADDY-CASE-ENCLOSURE-PC-MAC_W0QQitemZ8805071844QQcategoryZ96894QQtcZphotoQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Unfortunately STAR who tried answering this question is wrong.\nShe actually has it backwards.\nyour Acer is fairly new with Win XP Pro, and 4 USB 2.0 ports -- correct?\n\nIts the device that is USB 1.1\n\nNow only in the remote possibility that theres some sort of firmware upgrade for your device -- I think youre stuck with the 1.1\nBut you dont need to upgrade your ports..theyre already where they should be.\n\nId search for the specs of your storage.  Chances are if you cant find out what USB speed they are -- then theyre USB 1.1.\n\ngood luck - hope it helps

I had a bunch of trouble from a USB 1.0 Hub being used in USB 2.0 Ports. First thing make sure it is USB 2 hub and then make sure the hub is plugged into the BACK of the computer (motherboard) not the front panel which goes to motherboard headers.

Go to Pricewatch or Geeks.com and get a USB 2 card and install it.

If your computer came with USB 1.1 most likely it's on the motherboard and can't be upgraded.\n\nHowever, you can buy a PCI slot USB 2.0 card and install it in your computer.

Just transfer through USB

You can`t, but if you need the speed of a 2.0 USB port, you can buy a PCMCIA USB2.0 card, they are no very expensive, and some even have 4 ports and Firewire ports.

The biggesst difference is transfer speed.  Most devices meant for USB 2 will throttle down, but if you are doing something like copying a hard drive, you will really see it.  If you are using a USB dvd player, it likely won't work without USB 2.  Upgrade requires a PCI card which runs about 20 to 30 dollars.

You will need an adapter.\n\nSpecifically, a parallel-to-USB wire.\n\nThe link listed as a source is an adapter made by Belkin. It gives you some more information about this type of adapter.\n\nNOTE: The site may not represent the lowest price for the product. I highly advise searching local stores and internet sites for the lowest price.

Nope, you need a wirless adaptor, USB adaptors are cheap, ($12 - 30 Bucks) try compusa, or tigerdirect.com
