Hello everyone

My configuration is Asus M3A78-T, Athlon64 5600+, ubuntu 8.10, virtualbox 2.1.2
The motherboard has no serial or parallel port, so I bought PCI I/O controler 2*S 1*P on NetMos chipset.
Controler was check under windows with dedicate drivers and work fine
its the same under ubuntu but
there can't install driver in xp client system.
The serial ports in virtualbox xp configuration are configure properly for shure, xp cleint see pci-device in device manager
but can't install drivers for them.

Have anyone solution for this problem?
Thank you for help
regards

See the VirtualBox FAQ for what a VM does and is.

Thank you for answare

OK
if I understand, there is emulation hardware so
guest system can't see the real harware but
why xp guset system detect PCI device in hardware manager?

regards

That PCI device is an unknown device, currently not supported by Xp, it simply has no driver build in. Apparently, Vista has no issues with it. It's not important anyway, else more users would ask this.
