Is the Infrared Drive compatible with any PC system ?

The Infrared Drive can be installed on any PC system which has an IrDA connector on the motherboard. Generally, most Pentium (or compatible) and virtually all Pentium II CPU based (and beyond) PCs have an IrDA connector on the motherboard. Naturally, it would only work if the motherboard is 100% compatible with the operating system. Not all Pentium motherboards are Windows compatible when it comes down to the finer details such as the IrDA port, USB operation, etc. Fortunately, the later PII, PIII, and Athlon motherboard models all come standard with an IrDA connector and are compatible with various Windows version.
