That is not what it looks like to me. It looks like your system drivers are out of date (this happens) and XP is doing the best it can with the old stuff it has. I would not count on the drivers being up to date on any system you bought from the store or a system you put together yourself and don't trust any CD that comes with it your system or motherboard to have the latest stuff on it. Always go to the manufacturer site to see if there are updates for you. In your case, there are. If you do not see the word Enhanced in Device Manager, your drivers are old and need to be updated (at least this is my experience). Does this message indicating out of date USB divers look familiar? This device can perform faster if it was connected to a high speed USB 2.0 device A simple driver update will cure that problem. It looks to me like you need to go to the Gigabyte support page, see what their latest drivers and BIOS versions are, compare them to yours and get your system current. I would do the chipset drivers first, since some folks feel antsy about updating the BIOS (your msinfo32 information says you are a few versions behind). XP Chipset drivers (and other drivers) for you are here: http://www.gigabyte.us/Support/Motherboard/Driver_Model.aspx?ProductID=3012&ost=xp#anchor_os BIOS updates for you are here: http://www.gigabyte.us/Support/Motherboard/BIOS_Model.aspx?ProductID=3012 I can't do the legwork for you, but maybe somebody else will volunteer to walk you through figuring it out. Then when you are done, we can clean up your Device Manager of any remaining warnings or errors so there are no warnings (yellows) at all - and what a good feeling that will be.

But will download the latest driver and install anyway. Any special of installations? Chip set, then, Audio then LAN ?

Yes, deleted the USB entries under 'Yellow' question marks. Reboot XP, then the 'Enhanced' USB are shown. BTW, how do I know which 2 ports are USB 2.0? |
