Re: USB host controllers

Thanks Richard. My board specs say USB 2.0 and one of my devices (video
input convertor) runs perfectly under USB2.0, and the corresponding host
controller reports as "usb2 enhanced host controller" in the device manager
window. The other 3 just show "usb universal host controller". Is this
because there is no USB2.0 device connected or because these controllers rum
under standard USB drivers and need a USB2 driver too?
