I've never installed any hardware inside my computer before, but this card was easily fitted. Note that the drivers have to be installed before installing the card and (for Windows XP anyway) once that's done the wizards do the rest.
No fuss, no bother and (looking at the reviews of the Belkin equivalent) very easy to instal.
Worked first time. 5 stars!

I've never dared fiddle with the 'stuff' inside the pc before, but when I needed extra USB's to supplement my two USB 1.0's and saw this card going for the price of a hub I thought I'd give it a try (especially as it gives USB 2.0 functionality).
Installation was simple and Windows XP installed it with no fuss (note the warning to instal the drivers BEFORE the card).
Highly recommended, particularly as just about everything now connects to a USB.

I'm using Windows 98 SE. The instalation process was a piece of cake. Instructions clear and the card worked first time.
