   I'm going to copy exactly how they're listed in Device Manager starting with   
   the heading:   
      
      
   Universal Serial Bus controllers   
        Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller   
        Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller   
        USB Mass Storage Device   
        USB Printing Support   
        USB Root Hub   
        USB Root Hub   
      
   Of course, each has that little USB emblem in front that I can't duplicate.   
   There are 4 on the backside of my box and 2 in front.  Which one has my   
   Canon i850 Printer plugged into it I don't know - it's in one of the ones in   
   front.  The other front one has the Mouse in it.  The 2 back ones that are   
   in use have a USB extension cord (not in use)   
    and the Epson Scanner plugged into them.   
      
   I wish I could upgrade them all to "enhanced".  (If they're not already).  I   
   still have the WinXP CD if that would help.
