Is there any way I can tell if my USB ports are version 1.0, 1.1 or 2.0? I
purchased the computer in 2002. |

Thanks. Now, my desktop computer has four USB ports supported on the
motherboard. Will it mess things up if I add PCI USB card? If I do, can I still use the existing 4 ports?

Nope. "If I do, can I still use the existing 4 ports?" Yup. -- Ted Zieglar "You can do it if you try."

Ted and Julian, thanks for your prompt replies. This was my first try and
using this source for help. I will take the plunge and get and install a USB 2.0 card.
