shijirou, your response appears to be the same as PC World when I spoke to them just now.<br />
<br />
So, if I attach a new PCI 2.0 USB card, then I just want to confirm, that any USB 2.0 device that I then plug into THE CARD, should then work at 480bits speed and not as slow as the 1.1 spec?<br />

Your card may have two or three USB controllers. You must install USB 2.0 devices under the same controller. If you install 1.1 and 2.0 devices under the same controller, the speed will down to 1.1.<br />

Can a motherboard which is USB 1.1 compliant easily become USB 2.0 compliant by flashing the bios? Is there any other technical difference?<br />
<br />
Secondly, if the main motherboard is 1.1 USB compliant and I add a PCI USB 2.0 card to the system, will those PCI/USB ports be 2.0 compliant despite the main system being 1.1? In other words, can I benefit from the higher speeds that 2.0 offers whilst leaving my original system as it is?<br />
<br />
Thanks.
