Hartwig Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 (edited) ...I can't run any USB devices on vmware. Every time I try it, the virtual machine crashed. (I use the same version of vmware) Edited July 6, 2004 by Hartwig Quote Link to comment
Hartwig Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 That's right. But Microsoft Virtual PC is very slow. You can use the Demo for 30 days. I do it, too. (18 days are gone...) Quote Link to comment
Guest Michael Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 when the ss2 box is unplugged ( and only if it is! ) my CF card reader is workin flawless... so the usb seems to be working in general... i'm on my 1st day... and it's not statisfying me Notes on USB Support in Version 4 We have tested a variety of USB devices with this release. In general, if the guest operating system has appropriate drivers, you should be able to use PDAs, printers, storage (disk) devices, scanners, MP3 players, digital cameras and memory card readers. Modems and certain streaming data devices, such as speakers and Web cams, do not work properly. maybe it's the answer, but anyway... who knows what 'certain' means... i don't want to give up that fast... a screenie....
