Win7 64 ultimate on OS X, no USB flash drives...

Post by MikeSantor »

Hello VB comm,

So Im just getting my feet wet with virtual machines and am having a little issue. I have tried connecting a few USB flash drives all with the same problem. VB sees them and when i click on the USB drop down menu it puts the check next to it. I get the little status light in the lower right hand corner signifying im connected (at least i think this is what the green light means) but I can not get the contents of the drive to open up in win7. I open up my computer and all it shows is the c drive, the floppy drive and the CD drive. nothing for removable media. I also try getting straight to the drive by typing in the drive number and it still dosnt work. What am I missing here?

Thanks in advance!
