@Blue2u:

If you don't want to buy a new PC right now, maybe another solution springs to mind!

Add a USB 2.0 card to your PC. Take a look at Startech USB 2.0 card.

NCIX is a Canadian firm, based in BC.

Or if you have a CanadaComputer local, Bytecc USB 2.0 5-PORT PCI Card or Vantec PCI Host Card - 5 Port USB 2.0, or even BestBuy Dynex DX-2P2C 2 Port USB 2.0 PCI Card or StarTech 3-Port Low Profile PCI USB 2.0 Card.

Based on the the age of your PC and the fact it only has USB 1, I think it's more than likely you would need a PCI based card (which is what I have listed).
