USB Bandwith Problems

[Steve Watford]

So I have 3 USB devices connected to my system. A mouse, a keyboard and a headset (I also have onboard soundcard which feeds my speakers). So everything is fine when my default sound device is my speakers, but if I try to change it to my headset nothing comes out of the headset and I get this;

BTW, im using windows XP with a mac theme

You could always try connecting the mouse/keyboard to PS2 ports and see what happens. Try lowering the level of sound quality going to the headset.

Thats the point, the mouse and keyboard are both USB, I cant connect them to PS/2. I'll try and lower the sound quality.

OK, i've managed to fix it (with side effects ) I lowered my usb poling rate back to the windows default (which sucks for gaming). But its a price to pay for a crappy usb port.
