Converting USB 1.1 to USB 2.0

I understand that you can convert USB 1.1 to USB 2.0 using a PCI slot i
a desktop, but is there anyway to make my USB 1.1 behave like a 2.0 o
my Laptop?

Using a PCI slot is not converting your old 1.1 ports to 2.0, it's adding
new 2.0 ports, your old ports are still 1.1

I HAVE the manual for my motherboard. Someone on this list told me to
look in device manager for "enhanced," which would indicate USB 2.0.
Another told me to look for the EHCI entry and update the driver to
bring the ports up to USB 2.0 standard.

The motherboard says I have 2.0 ports but need to get the drivers.
That was published in Nov. 2001, but the mobo was installed on Aug.
2001.

Later, I applied SP1 to XP Home. The USB 2.0 drivers are included in
SP1. Somebody on this list told methat I do not have USB 2.0 ports
because they weren't available in 2001 and that I need to buy a USB
2.0 card.

As you see, I've been getting conflicting information. I need to
figure out
1. Do I have USB 2.0 ports? (yes, because the ASUS user's
manual says so).
2. Do I have USB 2.0 drivers installed?
3. How do I find out if I have USB 2.0 driver's installed?
4. If they aren't installed, how do I install them?
