Win 7 homw premium EXTREMELY slow usb transfer

[mjc189]

I bought a hp dv5-2230us 3 days ago with a i3 380 4 gb ram and win 7 home premium . I tried to copy a 1GB file onto an sd card and it took over an hour! it was going at about 200kb a sec or so. On my old satellite A105 with 1 GB ram and T2050 1.6 GHZ it took about a min to transfer the same file on the same card running ubuntu. It was not a linux specific file. Only thing that has been installed is firefox, flash, java, and microsoft updates.

go to bios and look for usb settings, you can choose from high speed or full speed usb mode
