Windows Xp Pro Laptop

Will not work with Windows 7 XP.

This little device works great. I'm using it to switch between my desktop (which is a FreeBSD workstation) and my laptop (which is Windows XP) and it goes back and forth just fine without a problem!

Everything works perfect, it was recognized by my laptop with Windows 10 immediately, without the need to install drivers. However it didn’t connect to my PC Windows XP, which isn’t really promised by description as I know, so it’s ok, but people who still have XP, probably will be disappointed. By the way, other 3TB Transcend HDD connects to my PC without any issues, so it’s unlikely a driver/USB port problem. Shipping was fast and everything came in great condition. I liked experience with this order.

I am using the product to connect my windows XP laptop and my Windowsv 7 Computer to my HP 8500A all in one printer and it works as advertised. Easy to install and use.

I had to buy this item because the Motherboard Ethernet connection gave out, The PCI card slots are already in USE, one for the sound and the other for the USB 2.0 4 + 1 card is how I wanted to connect to my home network, and the third PCI slot is used for additional SATA/IDE port to increase the Page file for the PC with Windows XP Pro. Windows balked that I had to reacivate it, as to pay for Windows 8, as that was NO DICE!! I had to reinstall Windows XP Pro myself in which case, I already had the DVD OF, bought and paid for. This adaptor is the second ome I bought, as this mad it possible to activate it on line very quickly after I got everything back to normal. Windows does not like too many hardware changes!!! The original Ethernet adaptor did not need the CD to install its drivers, but the NEW ONE did! It is a BOO! on this process, it culd be plug and play ONLY!!!

Good price, use it for a Windows 7 and a XP machine, no problems so far.

I love my laptop, its fast and works great. My desktop is Windows 7 pro and this comes with windows 8.1 home. I just need to upgrade it to pro and I'm good to go.

It's great laptop ready to use but more power with probably a Windows Pro edition.

I use a Windows Pro 7 laptop gaming machine for hobby-based audio fun. It has been difficult to get a clean audio signal from multiple sound sources (tape, cassette, CD) into my laptop using the laptop's Audio In jack. After purchasing the SoundCraft Signature 10 for mic testing and mixing reasons, I discovered that the USB input/output port can deliver a pristine CD-quality audio signal right into my recording application (usually Total Recorder). This makes life so simple! Everything else is frosting on the cake.

I've only had this laptop for a couple of weeks and am still in the process of setting it up and transferring my files. My old Envy lasted for close to 8 years - the longest I've EVER had a laptop. If this one lasts even half as long - I would be very happy! I got a great deal and so far, so good with the new Envy. However, I wish I had the option to have Windows 10 Pro come pre-installed on this laptop. I HATE Windows 11 and did upgrade to Pro - still hate it. Will Microsoft ever learn?
