Hello, I found one bug

I have Windows 7 as host, and Windows 7 at VirtualBox as guest. I'll speak about guest:

- when I reboot computer, press F8 and choose Repairt your computer, after loading, I get this screen

Then I choose Command Prompt, type Notepad, click File --> Open --> My Computer

USB drive is plugged in and turned on within VirtualBox but it doesn't show as you can see on the image

Can you help me, USB is normally shown when I am using Virtual PC or VMware...

Did you install the Extension pack? Without it, you cannot see USB 2 device, which I guess your external HD is.
