Harmony 1000 remote and USB 3.0

[Rod#S]

Hello;

I recently had to get a new laptop due to issues with my old one and as I was installing and testing the software from the old laptop on the new one I ran into an issue with my Harmony 1000 remote. When I connected the USB cable the remote would simply not recognize a connection was made. I tried a number of different cables with no luck. I looked around on-line to see if people were having issues and I came across a couple interesting postings saying that some remotes are not USB 3.0 compatible. That was the difference between my new and old laptop. Is there anyway to get around this limitation as it seems at least to date no new drivers have been made available for the older Harmony remotes to make them work with USB 3.0.

Thanks
