Win XP Alert with Pen Drive

[cbcb52]

I have a pendrive USB 1.0
Just bought another , this time USB 2.0
When I plug in the 2.0 , I get a ballon warning telling
me that I have a high speed device but it won't work
at high speed because my USB ports are not compa-
tible.
I don't mind copying at "low" speed , since I use it for
dayly backup , (20MBs) , and in "low" speed it goes
nicely at 15 secs
Questions : How do I disable the annoying ballon ?
My system is a Pentium 4 1.9 GHz ; is
there some kind of USB card 2.0 to make
my USB 2.0 work at "high speed " in case I
change my mind ?

Yes, just go to any Computer shop or even the electronics shop in Wal-Mart
and ask for a USB 2.0 PCI Card [$25-30]. Leave the Balloon reminders alone
until you get the card installed.
