MP3 player & USB hub

alliyo

hello,
I have just plugged in mp3 player and got this message

The USB mass storage device is a HI-SPEED USB device and will function at reduced speed when plugged into a non-HI-SPEED port

The hubs shown in bold type have free ports that can support the HI-SPEED USB device.
VIA USB enhanced host controller
USB root hub 8 ports
and 8 unused ports below

recommendation
disconect the USB mass storae device from its current port and then connect it to one of the ports on a hub shown in bold type.

I have 2 usb sockets and same message comes up on both of them. so how do i get to go onto the hub shown in bold type! do i have to something to update them or ???

thanks for any advice

imho

Have you any usb hubs on the back of your tower ?

How do I know if my PC has USB 2.0?
You can identify whether your PC has Hi-Speed USB or not relatively easy. Open Device Manager and expand the Universal Serial Bus section. There should be an "Enhanced" USB host controller present.

You can identify whether your PC has Hi-Speed USB or not relatively easy. Open Device Manager and expand the Universal Serial Bus section. There should be an Belkin usb 2, 7 port hub.

VIA Rev 5 or later usb universal host controller(4 of)
