 Bug in chipset, IOGEAR is investigatingMay 16, 2003
After installing the card it would instanteously reboot my Windows XP machine with no warning or proper shutdown. Escalated to IOGear and Tech. Support responded that they have a major bug on the last chipset on the card that they have not fixed. Recommended I return it for a refund.

I bought this product from swimmouse at the market place. The shipment was prompt. And the USB card was in brand new condition. I have a windows 2000 professional PC. The installation was straight forward.

 doesn't work on Win98. only for win98SE and after.May 26, 2003
iogear tech support recommanded to return this card for GIC250U (5 port version) because of bug in the card. I guess got lucky with mine and it seem to be working fine with 80G external iomega drive(usb 2.0).
my system: win98SE/AMD Athelon 700mhz/Asus MB/Ali chipset.
happy purchase so far.

Cause hang on G4 MacJul 25, 2003
Installed this card on my G4 with 10.2.6. It works straight away without installing any driver for USB 1.1 devices. Then I installed the latest driver downloaded from IOGear web site and restarted my system. My system hang when I connected a USB 2.0 card reader to it. It consistently hang my system and I had to restart every time the system hang. I returned the card yesterday.
