You have actually (inadvertently) asked the wrong question. If your PC has
any type of USB port then it is USB 2 compliant. USB2 includes USB1.1 as a
subset. What you really want to know is if your USB ports support high
speed communication.

Go to device manager and go to the bottom where the USB devices are. Expand
the list and look to see if the word 'enhanced' appears against any of the
devices. If it does, you have high speed. If it doesn't, you need to make
an additional check. Open the properties of the lowest 'root hub' and
select the 'power' tab. If the tab shows the hub as having more than 2
ports then you very probably have high speed ports. If it shows only 2 then
you probably don't.

The real check is to connect a high speed device and see if you get high
speed transfer speeds.
