My Device Manager shows that I have two Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host
Controllers, the drivers for which are USBEHCI.SYS, USBHUB.SYS and
USBPORT.SYS.
DevMan indicates these are all Version 5.1.2600.2180, dated 01/06/2002.
Am I correct in believing these are USB 2.0 drivers, capable of 480 Mbps
transfer speed ?
If not, then which drivers do I need to have installed?

Jim.


This is what I have for USB 2.0 in Properties.
Under the driver tab:
Intel(R) ICH8 family USB2 enhanced USB host controller 2836.

Provider: Intel
Date: 4/10/2006
Version: 8.0.0.1008

In driver details:
c:\windows\system32\drivers\usbehci.sys
c:\windows\system32\drivers\usbhub.sys
c:\windows\system32\drivers\usbport.sys
c:\windows\system32\hccoin.dll
c:\windows\system32\usbui.dll

All are:
Provider: Microsoft
Version: 5.1.2600.2180 (xpsp_sp2_rtm040803-2158

As mentioned in another response, I don't believe the controller driver is installed, USB is not enabled in the BIOS, PnP is disabled or you need to update the BIOS.
