Hi, By default there are no USB Host Controllers available. we have to select them from Virtual Machine Settings, there we have an options like add/remove. click on add button and select Devices like USB host 2.0 Controllers, Secondary IDE devices, Serial /Paraller if needed. after selecting save this configuration and power on VMware XP. Then finally load VMWare tools inside XP. now you can detect pen drives, cd's on XP with guest credintials.

I think i did some thing wrong can any one tell me what would be the problem ? and how i use this VMWare for servers ? -- With Regards, Vivek Mangal Project Assistant IC Design Group CEERI, Pilani Call +91-9829681753 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subjecthttps://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
