Are here any computer paraphernalia that can be attached to a USB 1.1 port to generate it function at USB 2.0 speed
Answer:
sorry mate,as the previous answered mentioned,this is impossible to do
however a inexpensive solution would be to simply insert a Belkin USB 2.0 5-Port PCI Card.(http://www.argos.co.uk/static/product/pa...
this would convert your p.c to usb2.0 compatible,and as long as any hub you plug into your p.c is usb 2.0 compatible then everything that runs through that hub will be usb2,0
usb 2.0 is far better than the elder standard usb 1.1,the speed difference is massive(12mbps compared to 400mbps)
you ca also get usb2,0 connectors that will plug into a usb2.0 compatible connector on your motherboard,and most motherboards built within the last 2 years will enjoy at least 2 usb 2,0 connector slots on the board
its purely a case of connecting the plug to the usb connector on the board and afterwards attaching the usb ports to the back of your p.c,these type of connectors dont plug into a pci bus
upright luck mate
No. It's not possible.
You can make the addition of USB 2.0 ports to your computer using a PCI USB card.
Imagine your computer is a water bottle and USB 1.1 is a regular-size drinking straw attached to the bottom of the bottle.
If you attach a huge PVC pipe (USB 2) to the appendage of the straw, the water won't flow any faster nor any larger volume.
Similar situation here. If it's a desktop PC, you could bring a USB 2 card, or if a laptop, there are PCMCIA USB 2 adapters available.
No. You will other be bottlenecked at 1.1 speed. Most all 2.0 devices are towards the back compatible to 1.1.
You can get an aftermarket 2.0 USB PCI card, install it into a spare PCI slot, and you will enjoy 2.0 speed on the ports of that card.
No. But you could phone Maplin. http://www.Maplin.co.uk and ask if they have a card to upgrade it to USB2.
You can tag on a PCI card with USB 2 ports on it, but you cannot upgrade your exisiting USB 1 ports.
The solid question is - Are any of your USB devices of USB 2 standard? If not, don't verbs. They wouldn't work any faster.
