USB problem

[Xythoces]

I have an external WIFI antenna for my laptop which I connect via a USB cable.

My problem is that the Antenna is "Hi-speed" enabled, and I have no Hi-speed USB ports on my laptop, that I know of. Every time I plug it in, after a few minutes, I get kicked off by a message that tells me to plug it into a Hi-speed USB port.

Normally, I wouldn't have a problem, except that it interrupts my connection, and it takes a few minutes for it to re-connect again.

Is there any way that I could get rid of that annoying pop-up?

First you might want to post the exact error message, to aid in searching for fixes.

But one thing I found, you might try, is to go in Device Manager and disable error checking for USB.
Right-Click My Computer -> Properties -> Hardware -> Device Manager.

Down at the bottom is the USB section. Expand that and then, on any "controller", right-click it and choose Properties. Then on the Advanced tab, you can check the box to disable error checking.

Maybe that will do it, maybe not, but it's a start.

Good luck!

I think that fixed it.

It was more like an annoying suggestion than an error, but I think that fixed it; it hasn't happened again. If it does I'll post again. Thank you.

Ok cool, I'll remember that.
