Answer 1

If you are using a windows operating system you can do the ff.:
- right click on [My Computer]
- choose [Properties]
- click on the [Hardware] tab
- click on [Device Manager]
- on the Device Manager pop-up, expand on the [Universal Serial Bus controller] by clicking on the [+] sign
- You should see an "Enhanced" USB host controller present among the list if you have USB2.

Answer 2

I think the easiest way, if you know the make and model of your computer and/or motherboard, then you can look up the specs on the search engine. Alternatively, you can just read the manual that came with your motherboard/computer.

Another way is to check is to plug in a usb 2.0 device and see if it transfers at usb 2.0 speeds...

You can also go into the CMOS to check. There are always usb settings in the CMOS.

Answer 3

Probably the easiest way is. If you have a 2.0 device like a camera or flash drive etc.... Just plug it in, if you get a pop up in the lower right corner of your screen stating that this device can operate faster, then you don't have 2.0. If no message, hurray.

Answer 4

If you know your model, you could find this information on the manufacture website.
