Hi all, i installed the AnywhereUSB drivers in a virtual machine with Windows 2003 running. (virtual Server VM & Windows 2003 x86 OS in the VM) When i connect to a AnywhereUSB/2 device windows try to start the USB driver…but it failed. Errormessage in Device Manager is that Windows can not start the driver. Is it possible that this problem occurs because a virtual machine under Microsoft virtual Server have no USB Ports? Ehm because of this we bought a AnywhereUSB device 🙂 Thanks for help Kind Regards Andy ---

Hi Andy, This is an easy one. You need to get the file “usbd.sy\_” from the Windows 2003 disc (probably in the i386 folder) and copy/extract it to c:\windows\system32\drivers on the virtual machine. Then rename it to “usbd.sys”. Reboot the PC and the AnywhereUSB should install. ---

The same problem (only a 32bit version) copied the USBD.SYS to the drivers dir but still it is not possible to install the drivers for the AnywhereUSB. Can someone help? ---
