    Rite, I have 2 USB ports on my laptop both running USB 2 grand. Then I had to wipe my computer as it got filled up with viruses etc. When I reinstalled everything my USB started giving trouble. Basically whats happening is its telling me my device will run faster if i plug it into a USB2 port, which it should already be in. Anyone know how to fix this?
    Any help appreciated

    It\'s using the bog standard USB drivers that comes with XP.

    Either use service pack 2 or post the model of the laptop.

    I\'d recommend SP2 as it fixes alot of stuff.

    You need to install the drivers for the USB host itself. I'm guessing (though it'll do no harm) that this is what you need.
