This is just an added information regarding the said issue. I have a 2 usb flash memory when I will insert the flash memory it will prompt me "this device can perform faster" but when I connect also the other (flash memory) on the same port it will not prompt "this device can perform faster" Maybe one of the cause of this issue is the usb flash memory that you are inserting.

i do not have usb 2.0 can i update it with software and thats it

No - USB 2.0 is different hardware. You could purchase an expansion card that has USB connectors; that's what I did on one of my older machines.

I wish people wouldn't write articles when they are clueless. I have a machine that DOES NOT have an add-in card and yet has USB 1.1 and USB 2 ports and yes it does state enhanced. So you are wrong and it really annoys me when people make assumptions without checking their facts and then pass on inaccurate information to someone else who relies upon it as being correct.
