USB2 (Highspeed) not detected by XP PRO


Recommended Posts

Posted

If I connect ANY USB Highspeed (USB2) device to ANY USB port, and even if it is the only USB device, I always get the

pop-up message... (XP Pro SP2 is always giving me the same message) "...this device can perform faster if you connect it

to a high-speed USB 2.0 port".

 

The Bios shows USB Highspeed is enabled. The XP Device Manager shows "USB Enhanced" controller. MB is ASUS P4S8X-MX is

USB 2.

 

I can't make any sense of this. Indeed I have verified that the data transfer speed is snail slow.

There are several reasons why this message can appear. It would help my

analysis if you could give a little more information.

 

At what point does the message appear? By this I mean: when you plug your

chosen USB device in, XP acknowledges by giving a "do-ding" sound. Does the

message appear before the sound, immediately after the sound or some time

after the sound (like a second or two)? If the last option how long?

Hey, I was just reading today in MaximumPC Mag PC Fixes edition that the

Sis Chipset

and Intel combo sometimes plays havoc with the USB. There could be a Bios

update for

this Motherboard.
