Im trying to install a tv tuner card driver and it said "please plug in to a high speed port, as the one you have it pluged into now is not high speed"

wtf does this mean? My USB ports arent 2.0?

That's possible. What mother board do you have? What OS?

Boot into the bios and change USB settings.

Unfortunately the whole USB speed thing is quite a mess:
there's a usb 1.0 (low speed) which is really slow like 1.5mbit/s or 183kb/s
and then there's the usb 1.1 aka FULL speed, which is 12mbit/s or 1.4mb/s
last but not least there's 2.0 which is Highspeed: 480mbit / s or 57mb/s

Good luck.

Check in BIOS and check if your motherboard has USB 2 support.

Do you have service pack 2 installed? If not, there's your problem. I had the same issue and that resolved it

yes i do and i have Direct X 9.0c.

I found out its F2 to get into the Bios but i couldnt see anything about USB. I am 99% sure its got to be 2.0 because when i first installed this, it didnt pop any thing like that up. But the video was lagging, so I figured that is a sign of a slow connection.

How the heck do I update my USB and why isnt it 2.0?

if its an older laptop then it won't be USB2.0.

You might need to download USB2.0 drivers from Sony. My laptop requires drivers to 'enable' 2.0 speeds/functionality.
