MartyBarty 0 Posted January 20, 2001 I am having the wierdest problem ever on my Win2K machine. For some wierd reason whenever I use my USB modem to connect to the net, the machine goes all juddery and slow (think 8Mb P60 trying very hard to run Office 97). I had no problems with a standard modem, so we know it is USB related. The funny thing is though that although the same problem exists in WinMe (dual booting for a while before it was booted off the disk), it is nowhere near as pronounced. I have as per usual updated every driver etc, been to Windows Update and got everything but to no avail. I've listed my specs below, if anyone has an idea, please help. AMD T-Bird 1GHz ABIT KT7 Mobo 384Mb PC133 30Gb Seagate Barracuda ATA66 DVD, CD-RW, CD 32MB AGP GEFORCE 256 DDR SB PCI 64 Modem is Conexant HCF V.90 USB FCC ID : H52PT-3050 ------------------ There was an error processing this directive.

MartyBarty 0 Posted January 21, 2001 Yeah, in 2000 you need to go to USB Root Hub properties and deselect error checking, then go into BIOS and select that "KT7_CLK" setting and change it to default, not optimised. I did this, and the system is mucho nice-o. ------------------ There was an error processing this directive. Share this post Link to post
