Hi
I have an update but unfortunately it's not a solution to the root cause of
this problem. MSI support could not help me, or most likely does not want to
admit that they have a problem, finally descided to RMA the board and
replace it with a KT3 Ultra2R. It took many e-mails to finally get them to
do this..This board has a VIA USB2.0 chipset and the drivers do work
correctly to provide USB 2.0 speeds. I have one of these boards already.
Regards to all.

your plugging it in the wrong port or something equally useless! I have an
ASUS P4B533-VM which supports USB 2 using Intel 82801DB USB controller. I
have 4 ports physically on the motherboard and another port for connecting
to the case (provides additional two ports on the case). ALL PORTS support
USB 1.1 and 2.0. Device manager shows 3 USB Universal Host Controllers with
a USB Root Hub for each (providing 2 ports each) and then a USB 2.0 Enhanced
Host Controller with a USB Root Hub (providing 6 ports). I have tried BIOS
updates, driver updates, BIOS reconfiguration, uninstalling reinstalling
drivers and so on and on and on, but cannot get a high speed connection.
When ever I plug in my hard drive it always connects to a USB 1.1 root hub
and not the root hub for the USB 2.0 controller. Like you there is no
physically seperate port for USB 2.0 so I cannot simply plug it in somewhere
else.

and this works fine!! Both PC's are XP with SP1 and both are using baseline
drivers of 5.1.2600.0 currently, not the updated drivers you have, although
I have tried the updated drivers and it made no difference. Apart from the
chipset differences the only other difference is the enhanced controller on
the Tablet PC is allowed to use 12% of bandwidth where as my PC controller
can only use 10%.
