Both usb toggles on? try disabling the v2.0(enhanced) option for the Guest.

When are you sticking it in? is the VM running when plugging in? does device manager show anything like a yellow warning sign?

Then the basic Host installation has gone wrong or is incomplete, you always get something in device manager.
