I just bought a flash drive 512mb.
I know its 2.0, and I know that some older computers only have 1.1 USB.
I was wondering, Im not sure if my pentium 2 computer has usb 1.1 or 2.0, and im not sure if it will ruin my new usb flash.
If it wont ruin it, will it just not run it?
Just need to know if i need to buy the pci card or not...

I have a 128 and a 256 for my thumb drives (aka flash drives), and when I plug it into the other computer that only has the 1.1 ports. A little annoying pop up tells me that it could perform faster in a 2.0 port. They both allow me full access to my files, and I haven't come accross any problems yet.
