Travis, I don't knowwhat to tell you at this point, except that, (i am
guessing here) perhaps your mother board doesn't support USB 2.0? it makes
sense to me, but i am not a techie, that you could download the 'enhanced
controller' it could sit on your system, and not be used IF you don't have
the ability to access the USB 2.0 Root Hub, which would impliment the
function. DO you follow me?
The only thing you haven't tried (or have you?) is to carefully physically
remove the Belkin PCI card and re-insert it into the slot.
Before you upgrade with SP1 which enables USB 2.0 support, if you have a USB
2.0 device connected, Windows will indicate that you have a high speed
device connected to a low speed controller with a popup saying this. it
further sez, something like, 'this device will work at a reduced speed eetc
etc'...This persists until you do the SP1 update, which you have done.?????
Are you getting USB1.1 out of the card or nothing?
