| 504925 | 2006-12-07 20:56:00 | Your PC doesn't have the newer USB2 ports, only USB1. It doesn't matter because, as you say, the printer is still working. It's just windows telling you that if you connected it to a USB2 port it will work faster. A printer wouldn't make much difference anyway on USB2 unless you have a high speed laser printer. |

| 504927 | 2006-12-07 22:23:00 | Hi Guys, One option is to live with the message (my choice!). Another is to look at this (but am not sure I like the idea of turning off all error messages!)... support.microsoft.com Regards, Martnz |

| 504928 | 2006-12-07 22:27:00 | My Computer > Properties > Hardware > Device Manager > Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers > Select Properties of Universal Host Controllers > Advanced > Tick "Don't tell me about USB errors" Do it for all USB Universal Host Controllers. I've never had a problem with not seeing any usb error messages. If you ever need to do any debugging in the future you can always turn it on again temporarily. |
