View Full Version : Is there such a thing as...
a 1 into 2 USB adaptor.
I am a USB port short so I thought if I could plug one into my laptop that had two other USD ports I would then basically have three or would that not work?
Thanks for all those who were about to help but I just phoned my local computer shop and he has a 1 into 4 ;)

Get a USB hub. Think you can get 'mini' ones for laptops.

Yeah got it sorted, I was just going to add that they are called a USB Hub ;)
you can often pick them up in poundland, though i think that they would be unpowered hubs

I have several of these. Belkin do a 1 into 7 which is very useful (powered).
Now all I need is a 1 into 4 adapter for my dick... :)

Let us know if you get one as we will keep you busy here for a week.

Yes, you casn add lots of USB's.
If your pc has the old type (usb 1) it may be worth getting the new USB 2 type as its faster if you have USB devises, plus old USB 1 things will work with it.
But the USB hubs are cheap.

Yeah, you can daisy chain them and in theory have over 100 devices all going at once... But I think windows might crash if you did that... :)

my pc has got 8 USB ports, I never realized that. thanks geezer lol
got 12 here all on my motherboard and windows can accept it but might slow it down if they were all active at the same time ie printing whilst using a usb mouse whilst using controller to play a game but windows boasts or xp does that it can handle 200 USB devices at once not that i can imagine there are any uses for having that amount of crap all plugged in at the same time
