XP has no issues with USB 2.0. It is more likely the fault of your
PCMCIA card. You may want to check for newer drivers for the card or
try installing it in the other slot (if you have two). My Dell Inspiron
7000 had a bad bottom slot, but the top one worked flawlessly. You may
have something similar :)
