Question:How do I determine what version of USB I'm using?
Answer:Is the USB device or USB ports on
computer labeled as USB Hi-Speed?
Many devices and computers using USB 2.0 will indicate if
products are USB 2.0 ready or that they are USB 2.0 Hi-Speed.
Computers and devices that have this are Hi-Speed are USB 2.0
compatible.
Did you buy your computer before 2001?

if you purchased your computer before 2001 it is likely that you are
using USB 1.1 or 1.0.

and USB devices as "Enhanced" in the Device Manager.
