| | Re: share usb on VPC 2007 sp1 Some USB-to-Ethernet/Serial programs require the USBD.SYS to operate correctly, and this file is not installed by XP when a VPC guest. If so - just copy USBD.SYS to the 'system32/drivers' directory.

But if one wants to use all kinds of USB devices in a guest then a device server like SILEX sells can be used and communicated with trough the network. In such cases the usbd.sys file is needed in the drivers directory. But my experience is that it already exists in XP guests, only on server class guests (Win2003 etc) did I have to copy it in place. -- Bo Berglund (Sweden) |
