The iPad is a larger device and draws more power than your iPod and iPhone from the USB slot. Some consumers will have noticed that their iPad charges very slowly, or does not charge at all. Gigabyte, MSI, and ASUS have come out with software that allows their motherboards to handle the power requirements of the iPad. You will see that your iPad will now charge up to 3 times faster than before. Links are provided below, and in most cases, you will have to update your motherboard BIOS first. Gigabyte, MSI, ASUS, and ASrock account for more than 80% of the world market share in motherboards. If you have a motherboard that is not from one of these manufactures, go to your motherboard manufacturer’s website to find a BIOS update and appropriate software.
