how can i know if my (4 built-in)usb are 2.0 or 1.1????

If i have 1.1 should i buy a usb control;er card (2.o) or is there any
way to make it go to 2.0????????

are the usb splitter slowing the overall performance of the usb port?

just little questions like that i need to understand , any help would
be grandly appreciate!

Thanks

Double check your motherboard specifications if the USB ports are 1.1 or 2,
usually you have a driver disc which comes with the motherboard to enable
them to function at USB 2 speeds, so esintially they will work at 1.1 speed
until you activate the USB 2 driver.

Check in Control panel under System icon and look in Hardware. Scroll down
to USB and note if you have any indication of an 'enhanced' USB controller
there.. If you do, you should have usb 2.0 in use.. If you don't have SP1
for XP installed, you do not have that entree.. SP1 enables all you need for
that USB2.0 to function...

yeah! well i guess that's what i have!
i m on "sp2" and it shows

intel blabla usb 2.0 enhanced host controler 24 cd

then

3 standard universal pci to host controller

wich i guess are the 4 built-in usb slots...then

1 usb printing support and 4 usb root hub(no clue what it is but must
be the managing or sth)

anyway the reason why i was asking is because each time that i use a
controller pad or steering weel for games the cpu usage jump up to 100%
and never go down till i reboot the pc even if i unplug the
device!?!?!?!?! ANY IDEAS???????????

I also found out that if i start the pc with the device plugged in
before the reboot there's no problem but it's shitty because i can't
start a quicky "game!....i know what you thinking!!! pervert ; )
"whilst i work other wise i will be stuck with a 100% usage till i
reboot ?!??@#?!@?$?

Thanks in advance guys!

I've installed SP1, verify the usb*.sys files are correct. But the drivers
in Device Manager don't show 'enhanced' or 2.0. So when I connect an
external CD-ROM , a message appears 'Hi-speed USB not available'.

What else can I do?

Thanks

You need to have USB 2.0 hardware, if all you have is USB
1.1, you can buy a USB 2.0 (or a combo USB 2.0 / Firewire)
PCI card. You also need SP1 (or SP2) to have the drivers
for the hardware.

If you install the hardware and want all the USB ports to
work, use the Device manager to remove ALL USB ports and
hubs and controllers, then reboot. Plug and play will
install the USB 2.0 drivers and also allow the USB 1.1 ports
to work at 1.1 speed.
