Is there a solution for this issue ?

Hi,

Which Virtual Machine are you using for Windows XP virtualization?

If you're using Windows 7's XP Mode, look at this post:

it seems that in order for you to use a USB device in virtual Windows XP, you also have to install the Windows 7 drivers of your device and install it into the virtual machine.

Hope it helps
