USB Webcam with Windows 7 Guest OS

Post by goldenmt »

I have a Windows 7 Host and a Windows 7 guest...long story. Anyways, i want to use skype in the guest because currently my host is not working properly. Webcam works in host, but not in guest. In guest os, all devices are recognized,

but the webcam is "Unknown Device xxxxx". if i click on it to attach it, i get this error:


Failed to attach the USB device Unknown device 1E4E:0102 [0002] to the virtual machine Win7.

USB device '<unknown>' with UUID {e77299e3-3ea5-4829-be06-71da121466d3} is busy with a previous request. Please try again later.

Result Code: E_INVALIDARG (0x80070057)
Component: HostUSBDevice
Interface: IHostUSBDevice {173b4b44-d268-4334-a00d-b6521c9a740a}
Callee: IConsole {1968b7d3-e3bf-4ceb-99e0-cb7c913317bb}

Thanks to anybody who can help!
