UI Error: USB 2.0

So every time I plug a USB2.0 device to my WinXP computer, windows says "this device can perform faster" and provides a popup to tell me I shouldn't have hi-speed usb devices plugged into low-speed ports.



If you click it to learn more (as it instructs you to do), it says "There are no high speed ports connected to this computer."



I'm seeing an opportunity for optimization here.

...maybe check for high speed ports on the computer before you alarm the user that the device should be plugged into a high speed port. I mean, the only way the average windows user is going to get USB 2.0 ports on an older USB 1.0 motherboard is to completely replace the machine, which they aren't going to do just to move music faster to the mp3 player.
