A high-speed hub is governed by the USB port that it is plugged in to.
Therefore if your motherboard only supports USB 1.1 then the hub will only run at that speed and not USB 2.0.
Your only solution is to fit USB 2.0 PCI card to a spare PCI slot in your motherboard. For this to work you need to be running XP with Service Packs.
