how much power from a usb1.1 port
I have a 3yr old compaq presario 2200 with a pcmcia twin usb2 card powered by one of two usb1 ports on the computer. I am running a Tevion usb2 video capture device from one of the pcmcia cards usb2 ports and suspect i might be close to the power output of the port.I have succesfully used this setup with my gstar-x video camera and found the computer capture program to lock up occasionally. Does any one know how much current the usb1 port on the computer is capable of supplying.I have just aquired a belkin hi speed usb2 video capture device which runs at a maximum of 240ma and i am worried that i might overload the pcmcia card.(The belkin device works ok on my desktop machine) If anyone can provide me with some info i'd be grateful.
regards philip
