Could be a virus, spyware, or a hardware/software conflict. Did you check them in your control panel for problems?
Best bet is to format your hard drive and start a new fresh install of your OS.
I have a small problem. None of my USB 2.0 ports seems to be working at the speed it should. In fact, they're not even recognised as HiSpeed USB 2.0 ports at all. I have a XFX nForce 780i SLI motherboard, which in theory carries plenty of USB 2.0 ports... in theory.
I'm pretty sure this is just a driver problem probably, but I've already tried downloading the latest chipset drivers and nothing is working. Anyone have any idea what could be the problem?
P.S. I use the USB 2.0 ports to upload recorded material from my HVX200A P2 cards, which normally shouldn't take more than a few minutes at most. Its currently taking me around 3 hours to download a whole card... ridiculous.

way, way too early for that. I'd like to exhaust all my options before I do anything like that.
yo try using the USB ports behind the tower direct from the mobo, instead of the towers head unit.....
I did. Did not work. Still, the motherboard is supposed to have 10 USB 2.0 ports. I don't even think it has any strictly 1.1 ports. So even the head unit should be 2.0.
I currently have Vista Ultimate 64 installed. Could it be something the matter with that?
Did you do a windows update?
as in downloaded SP1? or reinstalled the OS?
I have SP1
Sounds like a driver issue.
But sometimes it pays to check the most stupid thing: the cable - have you tried with another cable?
Why?
I format quite frequently (3-4 times per year). It's the safest way to keep your computer clean.
Just back up all the files you need to another HDD (assuming you have one) and format. Let the computer update overnight, and you have a completely new rig in the morning.
An admin I know formats monthly. Solves almost every problem right away, if there is one.
It also has the added benefit of almost completely removing software from the equation. If you format and you STILL get 1.1 speeds, it's almost definitely hardware.
to be honest, I don't feel completely comfortable formatting. I have all the CDs necessary I believe, but I'm not entirely sure as to how formatting works.
Shouldn't I be able to install windows again, or do a repair?
why is everyone always so quick to format? that never ever teaches you nor does it always fix the problem at hand.
your best bet is to search on google and not take advice from ST.
ps: might wanna just scrap the ports you have now and spend a measly $20 on some new ones.
right... so I shouldn't be quick to format, but going out and buying a new USB hub is the answer??
Give me a break. I've been coming to ST for help for years and they've never disspointed me.
oh man some of you just have an itch up your asses that you can't scratch huh?
so some on ST might be able to help ya out with computer problems but the majority who do not will say, "just reformat". reformatting a hd is never the answer!
if all other options are exhausted then yes going out and buying some new usb ports could be a better option then reformatting. yes. i'd look at spending $10-$20 anyday over reformatting my hd.
i used to tell everyone when i was way younger to just reformat but that's just ignorant.
^ So you never wipe your ass you just buy new boxers? What good is a new USB ports if your HD is infected? There is no way all USB ports went bad at once. And anyone who downloads movies/games/music online should be lucky their computer is still booting up after 12 months,
Formatting the HD is like douching, its good once in a while to remove the germs. You want to make love to a girl who only uses baby wipes after sex?
Besides there is a ton of software that will retrieve all your lost data if your so worried about that Joanna Brothers cd you finally found on iTunes.
Try booting up in safe mode and see what happens.
or test your USB

do an Avast boot up scan and tell us how many infections you have.

that's what i would of suggested.
you never cease to amaze me mouse... 3 yrs, never reformatted my old pc hd. it got infected a couple times, and had some minor hardware problems, but not once did i reformat the drive. wanna debunk that mr illuminati?
go get your foil cap out of retirement.
Let me see if I understand your logic.
You shouldn't format, because that's a quick fix and won't teach you anything.
But you SHOULD go spend $20 for a new set of USB ports, as that will teach you everything you need to know.
Could you possibly be more contradictory in two sentences within the same post? Maybe, but I have yet to see it.
And I know girls who never whats your point?
Another thing Illuminati is real there is no need for bigfoot thoeries or conspiracies. therefore the foil cap is not needed.

Try a system restore a week before the problem..
ah it... que in the I HAVE A MAC SO IT!
here's a quick fix for all you pc users... LINUX!
Or just sensible use of the system. Macs have their own share of problems. Most notably the fact that they are so idiot-proof it reduces their effectiveness.
huh?
well if effectiveness means more problems then i guess i'll just stick with my mac. good ol' idiot-proof-just- in-works-the-way-it-should mac.
is it plug directly into the usb socket?
or does ur connects though a cable that connects to the usb socket? cause its the cable.....
koriwhat is always online his must be good listen to the vato!
