Hi peeps,
I have a little problem, thats proberly easily fixed?
I have VPC instal and running, with a Virtual Machine running XP on it.
When I plug in my USB memory stick Vista picks it up but nothing shows up in
the Virtual Machine.
How can I use the device in my XP Virtual Machine?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Zane

There is no USB in VPC. To gain access to a storage device, you have
two options, VPC's shared networking, VPC's drag and drop, or standard
Windows network file and folder sharing.

VPC's help has detailed explanations of Shared Folders.
