Default Acer Travelmate 507DX

I have an old laptop acer travelmate 507DX. I got it at school for free. My
only problem is that I want to use a
portable memory stick.

But on this computer there is only USB 1.0.
Does anybody know if I can use my seriell port to get such a contact for my
memory stick.

It should be backward compatible, did you try it and it was not recognized?
It should work but not get the faster throughput available with USB 2.0
