Yes, that is true, but only at the lower transfer rate - you have to have a dedicated 2.0 port to get the full benefit. Jim is correct in that you have to swap out the motherboard to become fully compliant with 2.O - it is either that or the cardbus. And even then you might have additional problems as W98a does not support USB, 98se can be converted with a little work and while 98c does support very few copies of those are around.

Hi Jim
Sorry but USB 1 does read USB 2 and vica versa

Guido,

How old is your laptop?  If it was originally USB1 then you would need
to replace the board to make it USB2 compliant.  Updating the drivers
doesn't do it.  USB1 cannot read USB2.
