No, not really. Your device is in FIFO mode, which is generally slower
and more demanding of the system. Perhaps you BIOS has broken PnP
settings that windows deals with better. Try loading the module with the
parameter "nopnp=1" and see if that works (it might hang, so save
everything before you try this).
