Virtualbox USB driver problem for Windows Mobile 6.5 HD2

Post by joynes »

Hi!

I try to connect my Windows Mobile Device (Hd2) with VirtalBox using MacOS as the host (10.6.5) and Windows 7 as the guest.

The device shows up as HTC Generic Serial and Windows tries to install it as "PocketPC USB Sync" and fails to install the driver.

According to forums with people that have similar problems you should turn off "advanced network functionality" (I did this) and blacklist drivers in linux (no idea how to do).

Anyone has any good ideas? Will it be easier if I run Windows/Linux as a host?

I didnt have the extension pack installed and I think that fixed the problem... along with not choosing anything on the phone after I plugged in the usb..
