Could be damage to the USB cable, try a new cable.

| Hi Yves,
|
| Thanks for the reply. I'm running SP2, and I do have the
Enhanced Host
| Controller in device manager. I've been using this drive,
connected at USB 2
| speeds for about a year; it's only recently that it's
started giving me this
| message about not being connected to a USB 2 port.
|
| I'll try uninstalling and re-detecting all the USB stuff,
and see what
| happens.
