USB transfer rate slow after installing Windows 7 SP1 RRS feed

  • Question

  • I installed SP1 for Windows 7 64bit a few days ago and every single one of my USB devices takes almost an hour to copy 2gb of data. I did not have this issue prior to installing SP1 everything was clean and fast. I have a total of 7 USB ports and every one has the same crawling slow transfer rates no matter what type of file I transfer.

    Anyone have a solution to this?

  • the SP1 is maybe the cause. it doesn't update the drivers. Run the fixes from here to get the Sp1 USB drivers installed:

  • The 7601usbfix looks like it fixed 3 of the usb ports. I still have a storage controller not working properly that went awry the same time the USB ports did. 

    Win 7 Home Premium

    AMD Phenom 9600 quad core (x64) - 2.3Ghz

    4Gb Ram

    What other information do you need?

    remove the storage controller from the device manager and let Windows install them.

    Remove as in Uninstall correct? After they are uninstalled just run a Windows Update?

    yes, uninstall. Next make a reboot. Windows detects it again and install the drivers.

  • I uninstalled it, rebooted, and ran Windows Update. Still have the yellow !.

    Storage Controller > AA9YYSGK IDE Controller

  • Goto NVIDIA.com and find drivers there

    Nvidia is for my Gefore driver I thought. May be a dumb question but what does the Storage Controller do. Is it part of the GPU or my Motherboard?

    this is part of Demon Tools. Install them again.

    Do you mean Daemon Tools? I have that installed on another hard drive not my primary one for use with Rosetta Stone, among others. I'll uninstall/remove it.

  • Daemon tools has not been a problem.

    we talk about the AA9YYSGK IDE Controller, the USb issue was fixed with the linked Fix.

    Have you found any sort of solution to this as yet? I am experiencing the same problem as you and I too did install the SP1 update only 2 weeks ago. Thanks.

  • I am also having the same problem.  I have an Intel D915GMH mother board with Intel (not nVidia) chip sets.  

    I can use the exact same hardware and ports to copy the exact same data at high speed, if I boot from a Linux Mint DVD. 

    Windows 7 used to be able to sync my USB sticks at high speed, but at some point a year ago or so Win 7 got super slow -- 10x slower!  My USB hard drives seem to perform OK using the same ports.  I can't say for sure it coincided with service pak 1 my updates install automagically without notifications.  I know that's not good, but with so many MS updates it just easier than hours of  MS update investigations.

    I too see all sort of threads on this matter and I have posted my own and on others, hoping somebody has figured it out.  Still no answers.
