Your laptop has USB1 port and the USB 2 message will appear if you plug an USB 2 device into this USB port. You maybe able to upgrade the USB port to USB 2 if there is a BIOS upgrade available from the laptop manufacturer's WEB site. If not you maybe able to get an USB 2 PCMCIA card to install into the PCMCAI slot on your laptop.
you usb ports are to slow for the usb 3.0 device that message keeps coming up saying that the device is better then your usb ports you have on your computer...almost every computer now have 3.0 usb ports that have very fast transfer rates for data back and forth. well i tell you the message you get is not trouble with your usb port it just trying to tell you the transfer rate will be slower with your usb 2.0 port... i hope this helps you.
you might need the intel chip set drivers available from HP ... sometimes you have to remove the USB ports in Device Manager .. then reboot .. that will reload the USB drivers ..
This is just an error message. Yes, your HP Pavillion has USB 2.0, but there's a possibility that your USB flash drive has USB 1.1 specs.
If the flash drive has USB 1.1 specs, you would still get the same message. Again, this is just a message because USB 2.0 is backwards compatible with USB 1.1.
If you have a USB port on the back of computer plug it in there. Or use USB extension if it is uneasy for you to plug your pen drive from time to time. From there you can hook up your pen drive much easy.
On some laptops that are older (an IBM R40 is a bit older) there are no high speed usb ports but if you plug in a usb device that is USB 2.0 into a usb port that is not high speed, the operating system (Sounds like Windows XP) will display that message even though you don't have a high speed usb controller. The USB device will still work but at a slower speed. You can ignore this message without a problem
Hi,
this is a common error with operating systems and devices.
If you go into my Computer/system/device manager. And remove the installed USB devices. shutdown the computer, and reboot it. then try putting your USB device in.
What general happens, is that if you have had an older device in the USB port at any time, the port configures itself to this setting. options are to try another port on the computer ( some older ports only support usb1.1 )
ensure you have up to date drivers on the connecting device and on the connecting computer.
Hope this helps Mike @ Compurepair.
Try opening up the device manager and unistall everything in the Universal Serial Bus Controllers. Then reboot and let windows reinstall the USB controllers. Windows should now be able to recognize properly USB2 devices.
