I have setup a windows XP VM.
I have a USB device plugged into the Host machine. When I go to Devices => USB and select the device name I get an error message "Failed to Attach USB Device Philips (or NXP) to the virtual machine WinXP".
I have moved to a different USB port now under devices I see the Philips listed twice, but still cannot recognize the device.

I am extremely new to this and just trying to get a program to work. It doesn't run on Win 7 so tried the VM route.

I have attached a screenshot of the error message. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please read the following thread: USB basics and troubleshooting, all of the posts.

If you still have a problem after reading through the whole thing, please follow the advice of the last post, #8: Asking for help and post the information requested.

Thank you for the reply.

I will read through all the posts and see what to do from there.
