One of my computers gives me the message "This device can perform faster. This USB device can perform faster if connected to a Hi speed USB 2.0 port. Clich here for a list of available ports" (Compaq Presario with Windows XP/SP3)

It says this every time without fail when I connect a USB device to it. It does not matter what the device is: a flash drive, an eternal HD, a printer, a camera, etc.

How do solve this problem ? (and I don't mean suppress the warning message)

The computer has only USB 2.0 ports (m/b spec http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00019945&lc=en&cc=uk&dlc=en)


It has been going a long time now, but it has started interfering with hard disk testing, and so has become more than a nuisance.


I have seen discussions of similar problems but either the problem has been different in some respect, or there has been no readily understood answer to it that works.
