Sorry for not getting back on this sooner.
I only deal with this on the weekends when I go over to her place.
Yes, it does have USB 2.0.

Other things about her PC that may apply is that:

1. It has an ongoing problem with an occasional hang on shut down with a BSOD for a pci.sys problem.
Now, it hangs on shutdown every time the reader has been connected to it with an occasional BSOD.

2. Device Manager / System Devices shows 2ea - Microsoft UAA Buss Driver for High Definition Audio entries, one of which has an exclamation mark denoting a problem with it.
Properties/Device Status shows:
"This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)"
After uninstalling the one entry it re-installs upon restarting with the same problem.

I've wanted to install Win7 on her PC for a while now.
She has resisted strongly not wanting to deal with the change over.
She's beginning to weaken now.
I'm going to exchange a pair of 320GB HDDs for the 2 - 160GB HDDs she has now, then dual boot Win7 with her WinXP.
This will give me time to get the Win7 install setup tuned and her time to get used to it before removing WinXP from the PC.

I think that will take care of the problem.
We'll see.
Thx for your help.
If it works I'll let you know.
