Nope

You're best bet is to get a USB PCI card, assuming that your PC has PCI slots that is.

These cards can be picked up for around £10 or less, and will give you at least two USB ports, most of them come with four ports.

The only other thing is that you'll need at least Windows 98 SE on the PC for it to work properly.

@tempsonyfreak

lol, I wasn't saying 'nope' to your suggestion, rather to the question in the original post

I assumed that he's using a desktop pc and so a PCI USB card should do the trick, that's all

Unless it's a REALLY old pc, that is

Certainly, just drop the base unit in and I'll see what I can do.

We're only about three hours up the A1 from Luton, so your fast fix will unfortunately be slightly delayed
