usb 3.0

[rishabh]

here's the image of my device manager.

my laptop (dell inspiron 15r 5521) is supposed to have 2 usb 2.0 and 2 usb 3.0 ports. I can identify them externally ( ss logo for usb 3.0 ports)

but it seems Windows hasn't enumerated the host controller as a USB 3.0 controller.

why am I not getting this (usb 3.0 extensible host controller) : *blogs.msdn.com/cfs-filesystemfile....pi/1145.clip_5F00_image0144_5F00_189990B7.gif

any driver or something missing ?

i looked out here for help: How to determine whether a USB 3.0 device is operating at SuperSpeed? - Microsoft Windows USB Core Team Blog - Site Home - MSDN Blogs

No ther aren't there. Windows 7 doesn't have generic USB3.0 drivers AFAIK. What speeds are you getting with USB3.0 device in USB3.0 port?
