"This Device Can Perform Faster" Message

I have USB 1 (with Win XP) and get a yellow popup message as per the Subject each time I plug in my Shuffle. This message has to be cleared each time which is annoying but I cannot figure out how to supppress it. Can anyone show me how?? TIA for any help.

think the only way you could get rid of the message would be to ensure shuff was plugged in to a usb 2.0 port. sorry 😟

Getting rid of that message is getting rid of Windows.. you must be pluging in the shuffle to a USB 1.1 port. connect it to a USB 2.0 port

Getting USB 2 is an obvious solution but I'd rather not since USB 1.1 works fine for me (except for this particular problem). It sounds like these popup messages cannot be suppressed.

why don't you try something in "Folder options" in control panel.. I guess there's an option there to remove tooltips, that might work (I'm not sure I'm not a Windows User)

good luck

my computer stopped after a while of it happening so i don't know how but my windows stopped eventually doing that i think if you do look for a high power USB port it will stop.
