I'm using Vbox instead of VPC, but VM's use virtual hardware and generally it is pretty generic hardware. I don't have any choice of graphics & only 2 choices for sound. The only place I have several choices is NICs.

Hope this helps.

I've install the add-ons, but in the device manager, it says there is a problem with the virtual sound card.
