    • Right-click My Computer
    • Click on Properties
    • Click on the Hardware tab
    • Click on the device Manager button
    • Scroll down as needed until you see Universal Serial Bus Controllers
    • Expand that by clicking on the boxed plus sign in front of Universal Serial Bus Controllers
    Note the highlighted line: "Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller". While the exact text may vary, the key is the word "Enhanced".
    If it's "Enhanced", it's USB 2.0. If it's not, then it's USB 1.x.
