When I first purchased my Microtek Scanmaker 5900, it took me over 20 minutes to
scan a 6x9 frame. This scanner is USB 2.0 enabled, but my HP had only USB 1.1 ports.
I then purchased a Belkin USB 2.0 card, hoping for an improvement.
It floored me when my scan times dropped to aproximately 6 minutes.

Is it possible that win 98SE is not fully USB 2.0 enabled? My HP is running Win
XP Home Edition.
