halo i've installed windows xp on my virtualbox station and i want to connect to internet using a internet key Huawei E180, under Archlinux i can connect using it without problems, all works fine but under virtualbox i can see that the key is recognized, i've installed the program Mobile Partener and the driver so but when i try to connect i receive that the device is disconnect, can someone tell me a solution? Maybe can i share the linux connection with the key with Vb? Thanks, Marco

If its working on the Host the Guest can always use it with NAT, if you need it directly on a Guest you need to make sure it detects it twice or use an empty filter.

Thanks for the reply, i've set on net option the Nat but i can't surf online with Xp under Virtualbox even if the connection is open in the Host Archlinux, maybe do i have to change another setting? Can you explain me better your second solution? Thanks

The internet on the Host must be working first before starting a NAT'ted Guest.

Ok now it works i had to configure the apn and now works fine thanks

This seems to be the most relevant thread for my request. I hope someone is still here because I do not want to start another thread.

I like halo in co-op mode, but my cousin is the only person I know with a copy for the x-box and his broke. (the game and his 360) I have win 7 64 bit on my host and two XP 32 bit guests with halo on them. The adapters are bridged and I can ping between guests. When I start halo on either guest it tells me that I do not have directX 9.0b installed, but neither the ISOs nor my graphics card drivers seem to be able to install it. I'd like to run a lan'd co-op came on one pc and use usb controllers (can't seem to get usb working correctly either). Do not ask my why, just help me with the how.

How do I get directX on my guests to run halo?
How do I get the guests to recognize usb controllers and drives (one guest crashed trying to install the drivers to use my 1TB external hdd)?

My desktop pc specs:
2.33Ghz intel processor
4GB ram
700+ GB HD
1 GB nvidia GeForce 9600 graphics card
Windows 7 x64 os

Guest specs:
Windows XP pro x32 (Black edition[pirated])
128 MB video with 3d acceleration checked
1024 RAM
7GB virtual HD
Has virtual box guest additions installed (did it in safe mode for direct 3d)
no graphics card driver installed(won't let me)

About my pirated XP, my laptop came with VISTA ('nuff said)

I am doing this all on my desktop and both guests have the exact same settings even though they are two separate installs.

Is that enough info?
