It's true! This device CAN perform faster!

I am connecting a new camera to an older (ca. 2002) Dell Inspiron laptop, and boy, those image uploads are slow!

I get the popup reminding me that it "can perform faster" - with USB 2.0 presumably.

Can someone point me toward a resource explaining how to check my USB ports, and how to ensure I am getting top speeds or how to upgrade if I am not?

Thanks!

What model is the Inspiron? . .

You could use a PCMCIA adaptor like this:
