Backstory: I was chillin at work watching Youtube videos, when all of the sudden I was given this BMD Pocket Ultrascope and USB 3.0 ExpressCard, then, I was shoved in front of a workbench and was told "make this work."
Here's what I have:
BMD Pocket Ultrascope>StarTech ExpressCard USB 3.0 Controller Adapter Card(uses Renesas USB 3.0 driver)>Dell Latitude E6400(Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.66GHz, 4.00GB RAM, Windows 8 x64) (Mobile Intel 4 Series Graphics)
After I connect all of this and install the proper software and drivers I get an error message saying that the USB Controller does not have enough bandwidth for the Pocket UltraScope.
I have already read what laptop and other system requirements this needs. So, I know I am screwed when it comes to the integrated Intel video. My question is regarding the USB 3.0 bandwidth. Why wouldn't the ExpressCard work with this? USB 3.0 is 5Gbit/s and the ExpressCard will work at 5Gbit/s. Is the Pocket Ultrascope somehow operating beyond standard? Or are there other reasons besides bandwidth for the Pocket Ultrascope to only work with the HP Envy 15."
Edit: I misspelled "bandwidth"
