anyone know what i can do?

 

What are you trying to connect (give details like mfg model number).

 

sony psp the port is a 2.0

 

What is your OS.
XP limits power to 10% for ports by defualt.
You can change that but I would not do it.
You seem to have another problem.
Does the system recognize the psp when you plug it in?
You might need a driver.
No one seems to have had this problem, so it may be your PC.
Do other USB devices work?
See this link, it is the only one I could find.

my os is window xp home, all the other usb ports work just this one,

 

Take ddp advise. He is the man! lol

 

Right click on my computer -> Hardware -> Device Manager -> Check if there any questionmarks in yellow -> if there is right click and enable. If it already is then click on update driver or Reinstall Driver. Think ull need ur XP cd to reinstall.

 

i'll try that thank's for all ur help
