I believe USB 2.0 devices are compatible with USB 1.1 ports in general.  XP, 
for instance, warns me that I have connected a low-speed device to a 
high-speed port when I connect my USB drive to that machine., but it works 
(albeit at 12 Mb/s).  Do you think Cruzers are different?

Also, I agree with the other poster's recommendation that you scrap the "ub" 
driver in favor of "sd".
