1.0 out of 5 stars Not Compatible With Vista, July 10, 2008

This review is from: Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 5-Port PCI Card (Personal Computers)

I just bought a new computer and needed to add USB ports to it. I thought I had a great solution but discovered that this card is NOT compatible with Windows Vista. There are no drivers on the enclosed CD for it and the company's website (Belkin) doesn't acknowledge that it is one of their products. Also, in the spirit of "plug and play", I installed it anyway but my computer wouldn't even boot up with it installed. I don't blame anyone; I just wish there was more information on the website before I purchase.

This review is from: Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 5-Port PCI Card (Personal Computers)

After the USB ports onboard the Dell computer died, I needed something to connect the myriad of USB devices on the desk (2 external storage devices, two printers and one scanner). I purchased the Belkin controller because I've been satisfied with other Belkin products that I have purchased in the past; their price was a bit higher than similar controllers from other manufacturers. The hardest task was extracting the USB controller card from the plastic packaging. Plugged the card in, powered up the computer (Windows XP Pro) and plugged in the devices. Everything worked like magic and faster than the original onboard USB ports.

Easy installation on my Power Mac G4 - no drivers to install. I've tried other usb cards, but Belkin is definitely the one to get. Works perfectly with Mac OS 10.4.8; iPods synch and charge without any issues.
