Not really as this is hardware related and I don't know much about hardware support.

Chris - I'm imagining it's pretty much impossible to find a 1.1 USB external hard drive, so is there a way round it? Again, this is for a friend running an old machine under XP. Where would he look for confirmation that his USB ports were 1.1? I know he can go to control panel, and look under hardware\USB but I don't think it says if the ports are 1.1 or not, so can you help out?

They are backwards compatible. But not the other way round.
