I installed the MS updates that came out on 6/11, they all installed
successfully. Since then, I've got a couple of messages upon waking up the
computer about devices that would work faster on USB 2.0, which I have in my
computer (an XPS420). Today when I ran my backup to an external hard drive
(connected on USB), instead of running in about 25 minutes, it was only
about 25% done after 30 minutes. I could see also that the CPU usage was
only about 5% instead of the usual 25-30%. It looked like it was running on
USB 1.1. I ran a system restore to back out the updates, and everything is
back to normal. The complete backup ran in 28 minutes and the CPU usage was
up to 25-30%. Has anyone else experience this problem? I looked through the
descriptions of the updates and could see no mention of anything that would
affect the USB. I guess I'll start adding back the updates one at a time and
see what happens.
