Bonz Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Just letting everyone know if they didnt know before that theres a good chance your going to have dramas with ur audio interface etc. with most of these new laptops that only have usb3.0 ports..the new asus i bought is having all kinds of dramas with my audio kontrol 1. im in the process of attempting a fix now.let me know if any of u have the same problems.

yizzle Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 bro that sucks, im really sorry. know how much you put into getting a new lappy.my new Dell with x4 USB 3 is crashing every time i put my external sound card in; both Audio 2 & M-Audio Ultrai have not been on Traktor in weeks to mix nor have i got it yet for FL 10 to acknowledge my external sound card.personally, im shattered to think i thought i was upgrading but found myself with constant problems..eg. viewtopic.php?f=48&t=11464&hilit=win+7 Quote
yizzle Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 i would have mentioned it in your laptop thread, but im way too out of the loop on technology to be all "hey my USB 3 sucks.." Quote
Bonz Posted October 15, 2012 Author Posted October 15, 2012 haha thats all good man!sorry i didnt see that post.well looks like where sorta in the same boat.ive found a thread where people are attempting a few things, might work for u as it did for some on there.didnt work for me tho..http://www.native-instruments.com/forum ... p?t=173508basically you can try this.control panel > programs and features > locate "Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller" and uninstall it...For some people the usb ports fell back to 2.0For me i lost all function of usb ports.if you try it and u lose all function of usb u can reinstall it here... http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Deta...id=dc_rss#help Quote
yizzle Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 *sigh* wtf...anyways, i will give your suggestion a try cause im running out of options i have tried.all i hear as an echo in my head is my gf saying "get a mac, get a mac, get a mac, get a mac, get a mac..."must prove wrong how could NI & others not warn ppl about this kind of issue when win 7 & usb 3 came out. devo..

Bonz Posted October 15, 2012 Author Posted October 15, 2012 haha noooo dont glorify all the mac heads in there..! hahaapparently SOME mac users with 3.0 are also having problems.but yeah i know right, a load of shuit.makes me wanna move onto another brand of interface.ive also heard windows 8 has a fix. so until then i dunno....

GREMM1S Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 You should be able to force usb 2.0 in your bios settings. Quote
yizzle Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 You should be able to force usb 2.0 in your bios settings.elaborate pls. Quote
GREMM1S Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 You should be able to force usb 2.0 in your bios settings.elaborate pls.When your computer starts you should be able to press f10 or something to go into bios options, where you can enable and disable usb standards Quote
Mitch Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 for dells it is F2 right after pressing the power button.pretty sure there is no option to force ports back to usb2 though (at least not on the model you have ysm)as far as the incompatibility goes, it seems like more of a driver issue than anything, have you tried different versions of the drivers?also checking for the latest updates to drivers on NI site Quote
Bonz Posted October 15, 2012 Author Posted October 15, 2012 yeah ive tried previous to latest drivers for the audio kontrol 1.and no point updating the driver for usb3 coz ive already got the latest. Quote
Mitch Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Ahh that sucks, ill have a bit of a research for you when i get all of my pending work out of the way and have some free time to look for you. there must be a way to get it working Quote
eggssell Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 ehat about using a usb hubone of the shittier ones that isThese always had the issue of if you had a USB 1 item plugged in (which most sound cards are) then all ports on the hub will run at USB 1 Quote
Bonz Posted October 15, 2012 Author Posted October 15, 2012 It wont generally work using usb hubs because in theory ur still running it through a usb3 port.other people have tried it with no luck.thanks fuddz and eggs Quote
Mitch Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Yer a hub just adds another thing that could make it go wrong. Best with direct into comp Quote
Bonz Posted October 15, 2012 Author Posted October 15, 2012 When's win8 coming out?Either wait for that or wait for NI's fix....Or find an interface that supports usb3. Quote
Mitch Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 Don't upgrade to win8. At least not straight away. It's just going to bring a whole new world of issues Quote
legunner Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 *get a mac get a mac get a mac*but seriously sorry to hear lads Quote
GREMM1S Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 God jumping to 8 would be one of the worst things you could do.L Quote
Bonz Posted October 16, 2012 Author Posted October 16, 2012 Don't upgrade to win8. At least not straight away. It's just going to bring a whole new world of issuesHey supposedly its a fix...if theres an option im gunna take it eventually.NI better pull there finger out! Quote
yizzle Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Have you checked the NI Service Center recently for updates mate? Quote
MelodyIlliterate Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 just bought an asus ultra book with usb3.0no problems with my s1feeling for you bro Quote
Bonz Posted October 17, 2012 Author Posted October 17, 2012 yeah nothin there ysm.cheers melody, glad urs is goin alright man, looks like it maybe hardware specific.hay do your usb 3 ports work backwards, as in they support usb 2 as well? Quote
Mitch Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 all usb 3 ports should be backward compatible. just some devices that are being plugged in look like they are having a couple of issues. mainly audio interfaces too by the looks of it Quote
Bonz Posted October 17, 2012 Author Posted October 17, 2012 I can't find a solution.Worth trying it in bios? Quote
