426851 2006-02-04 17:38:00 Look for the USB 2 settings in the BIOS, and if its on full-speed, change it to hi-speed. Then save the settings, in the BIOS and reboot.

Is USB 2 onboard, or are you using a USB 2 PCI card or something?

426852 2006-02-04 21:32:00 Should all USB ports be high speed or only some?
I have a couple of ports on my pc that are and others that aren't and it keeps telling me to try plugging my high speed device in another port...

I think you just made up that "old" saying........

It depends what the options for USB 2 in the BIOS are. By the looks of it, on this mobo u can have 2,4,6, or 8 USB ports enabled in the BIOS, just by changing the USB function option in the BIOS.

Some BIOS'es may also have the option to switch each USB port individually to either hi-speed or full-speed as well.

Or it'll most probably detect what the speed is, of the USB device thats plugged in anyway.

426855 2006-02-05 11:11:00 i am using a USB 2.0 PCI card. i have 4 hi-speed ports (from the PCI card) and 4 low speed ports, which were already in the computer

426856 2006-02-05 17:35:00 Ah ok, well installing a USB 2 PCI card wont automatically change all the old USB 1 . 1 ports to USB 2 .

The onboard USB ports will still be at USB 1 . 1 . speed .

There wont be any options in the BIOS for the USB 2 PCI card .

Only the USB 1 . 1 onboard ports .

I take it, you're plugging whatever USB 2 devices you've got into the PCI USB 2 card ports, NOT the onboard USB 1 . 1 ports . That'll be the only reason why its bringing up that message, in your original post .

The only way you'll get all of the USB ports to run at USB 2 speed, is if you install another motherboard, with USB 2 onboard .
