Hi,
I'll post my info on my USB device. I have XP Pro with SP 1, and a Trinity 400(S1854) motherboard.
Can someone please tell me how I can get the "enhanced" USB 2.0? Do I have to buy a new card(is that what it is called), or download something from somewhere to make it a 2.o enhanced??
I am totally confused.
Here is my info


Generic USB Hub USB\VID_050D&PID_0234\4&4C41CF0&0&2
Generic volume STORAGE\REMOVABLEMEDIA\7&308779DA&0&RM

USB Mass Storage Device USB\VID_058F&PID_6369\058F0O1111B
USB Root Hub USB\ROOT_HUB\3&118DEB0A&0
VIA Rev 5 or later USB Universal Host Controller PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3038&SUBSYS_12340925&REV_11\2&EBB567F&0&3A

Short answer: you need real USB 2.0 hardware plus the right drivers — software alone cannot convert a USB 1.1 controller into Hi‑Speed. is correct: if the motherboard already exposes an EHCI/“Enhanced” controller and you install the matching chipset/USB driver, you get USB 2.0; otherwise the practical route is a PCI USB 2.0 add‑in card.

Checklist to diagnose and fix (do these in order):

  1. In Device Manager look under “Universal Serial Bus controllers.” An entry that says “Enhanced,” “USB 2.0” or “EHCI” means the host supports Hi‑Speed. If you only see generic “Universal Host Controller” entries with no “Enhanced” label, the hardware is probably USB 1.1 and drivers will not add Hi‑Speed.

  2. If an EHCI/Enhanced entry exists but devices are still slow, update the motherboard chipset and USB drivers (use the motherboard vendor or the controller vendor) and enable any USB 2.0/HiSpeed option in the BIOS. Remove the USB controller entries and reboot so Windows reinstalls them. Connect the device directly to a rear I/O port (not to an older hub).

  3. If the board truly lacks USB 2.0, install a PCI USB 2.0 controller card that includes Windows XP drivers. After installing the card and drivers you should see the Enhanced host controller and much higher transfer rates.

Quick testing and card‑reader note: test with a known USB 2.0 device (large file copy). USB 1.1 will be very slow (around 1–2 MB/s); USB 2.0 should be many times faster (tens of MB/s depending on the device). Some multi‑card readers enumerate as generic mass storage and may need vendor drivers for full multi‑slot or card‑detect features — as suggested, look for the reader’s driver if card detection is the issue.

Hello,

USB is a hardware device, and it uses software drivers to interface with the OS. In order to have USB 2.0, you need to have hardware that operates to the USB 2.0 standard, and then the software drivers for it to function properly.

If your motherboard / supplied USB is not 2.0 compliant, then you need to add a PCI card with the ports, and check to make sure that they are compatable with your OS.

I'm trying to find a driver for your device identified as USB\VID_058F&PID_6369.
Do you haave such a thing, or did you install without a driver?
Thanks for your consideration.
