Hi there.
I am new with VM but I just installed VirtualBox on my Win 8 PC and I am running Win XP as a guest.
I need the guest to recognize 17 x usb devices but when plugging and making it use device number 8, I get the following error:
Failed to attach the USB device FTDI FT232R USB UART [0600] to the virtual machine WinXP-VirtualMachine.
Failed to create a proxy device for the USB device. (Error: VERR_PDM_NO_USB_PORTS).
Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component: Console
Interface: IConsole {db7ab4ca-2a3f-4183-9243-c1208da92392}
BTW I do see all 17 devices listed in the VM Devices drop-down-list
My guess is that this is related to the maximum number of USB devices that VirtualBox can accept.
Am I right?
Is there a way to make this limit higher so I can use my 17 USB devices (I am connecting them via an external power sourced USB HUB).
Your ideas are appreciated.
