Hello all, I am experiencing weird problem with my pen drive. I have just installed new system to my PC. Windows XP 2 , Professional Version. I updated all my USB drivers to new one. When I connect pen drive to my port , my PC restart every time:confused:. So, I uninstalled it and kept the drivers provided with my system. The same problem persisted:confused:. So I installed another drive from Ali. Now the pen drive is working:p.But, even though my drive to connected to USB 2.0 port, windows shows the message" The drive can perform faster if you connect it to high speed port.":confused: Can anybody help out of these problems.
Thank You.

Check whether the USB Legacy support is set to Hi-Speed (480 Mbps) or Full Speed (12 Mbps) in the BIOS.

@anand 1

I already have USB 2.0 card on my PC.

Actually, I have all (i.e. 2 USB 2.0 ) port on the back of my cabinet. So I have attached a USB connector cable, to bring the connection if the front. I tried removing the cable, and attaching the drive directly to port, but to no avail.
