My laptop tells me that my devices can run faster, but not sure how to change usb ports?

i am using my laptop, an acer aspire 5515. everytime i plug my internet card into the usb port it says that it can perform faster using a highspeed usb port. when i click on the message, it pulls up a list of ports. but there is nothing i can do from there. how do i assign a particular item to a specific port?My laptop tells me that my devices can run faster, but not sure how to change usb ports?
Windows says you it can run faster, but that laptop doesnt have high speed ports, so windows is feeding you lies.My laptop tells me that my devices can run faster, but not sure how to change usb ports?
Hi There,



The message is telling you %26quot;The device you plugged into the USB port is capable of using USB 2.0 and you have plugged it into a slower USB port.%26quot;.



In other words the message is for the device (not your computer).



If you had a desktop you would be able to purchase a USB 2.0 card, plug it into a PCI slot, run the software (that came with the new card) and you would then have USB 2.0 which is quite a lot faster.



Since you have a laptop you don't have that option so all you can do is ignore the message.



Hope this answers your question.

You have to keep moving the internet card to a particular USB port on your laptop until you find which is the highspeed.



Funny enough, Windows claims I have about 20 high speed unused ports.... I only have 2 USB at the front of my computer and 2-3 at the back of my computer..





I believe it's just Vista being well....vista....Microsoft released vista too early, wait for windows seven...
