Pc Troubles
« on: October 28, 2008, 04:43:00 PM »

my bro has a vaio pcv-rs520 that he has had for years working fine, Now all of a sudden it detects anything you connect to the usb as "being able to run faster on a 2.0 port- then says it has none" of course it has all 2.0 ports because they worked fine before. I've tried system restore, updating the drivers, etc.

 Has anyone had and fixed a problem like this before?

Did he do a reinstall of the operating system lately? If so, maybe he didn't upgrade to the latest service pack. I believe USB 2.0 was only available on SP2 and above.

It has SP2 already, I updated to SP3, and it did nothing. so then i went into the bios and messed with some settings i read somewhere, nada. so i went back to bios and enabled everything to default settings, and saved.

Boom. it now works. weird.

he must have messed with some setting in the bios or something

thanks for the reply Alex  biggrin.gif
