Configure XP mode to link automatically USB devices?

Is it possible to configure XP mode to link automatically USB devices?

This is a real nuisance to have to manually set a usb scanner to scan in to an application that does not work on win7 naitively.
And it makes it impossible to deploy the application in a transparent mode, since the scanner is not attached if you try to run transparently without initiating 'Desktop' mode xp mode and manually attach the scanner first.

Hi all - I have a solution that works, the only problem is the cost.  USB over network Fabulatech.com, share the USB device using the server component (in the windows box 7) and install the client in the Virtual Machine XP Mode and it will automatically connect at startup of the machine.

If you need to share the USB device between the computer and the computer/application in XP Mode Windows 7, you can install the USB on the network client on the computer Windows 7 and settled on manual, in order to launch local applications with a CMD file that starts the network client USB key first before opening the application.  This way, the USB devices are available to any devices to connect to via USB on customer network.

  • Problems with USB devices in Windows XP Mode on Windows 7 Pro

    I have a Palm Zire 21 that I use with ACT! Contact Manager to keep track of my appointments.  I was able to sync the Palm with my ACT database until this week. The device appears on the list of USB devices, but does not connect to Windows XP mode.

    I used this device in XP Mode since August without any problem.  Last week, I started having problems with the integration of XP features and had to uninstall and reinstall the integration features a few times.  I think I have a corrupted somewhere driver.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    No need to comment unless you have more insight.

    I solved the problem myself.  In XP mode, I went to the Device Manager and scroll down to USB controllers.  A virtualization USB bus drivers showed a problem.   I uninstalled this device and then managed to reinstall my Palm correctly after connecting it to the USB port, and then going back to the menu at the top of the XP USB mode screen and hit connect when I saw my camera.  The device connected in XP automatically and I was off to the races.

  • Run a specific USB device automatically when AutoPlay is disabled?

    Very well. I decided to turn off the automatic reading and I want to control what makes a program when a CD/DVD or a USB device is inserted on my PC.

    How can I start a device specific USB automatically runs with AutoPlay disabled?

    The USB device, I am trying to run automatically is a USB from Magic Jack phone; Magic Jack program should start automatically and I have auto play off it takes about 1-2 minutes to load the application once I plug the device into the USB port.

    I hope I'm lucky and there is a solution. :-)

    Hi ByteBowser,

    Welcome to Windows Vista answers Forums!

    From Windows XP SP2, AutoPlay is enabled for removable drives also. This includes ZIP drives and USB mass storage devices. If you activate the settings disable AutoPlay, you can disable AutoPlay on a CD player, on removable media, on all players readers.

    When you set the option as options to disable automatic execution, it is set as default and no change is possible.

    However, in order to disable specific Autorun features in a selective way, you must change the NoDriveTypeAutoRun entry in one of the following subkeys in registry keys:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer\

    The following table shows the settings for the NoDriveTypeAutoRun registry entry.

    Value

    Sense

    0x1 or 0x80

    Disables autoplay on drives of unknown type

    0x4

    Disables autoplay on removable drives

    0x8

    Disables autoplay on fixed drives

    0x10

    Disables autorun on network drives

    0x20

    Disables autorun on CD-ROM drives

    0x40

    Disables autoplay on RAM disks

    0xFF

    Disables autoplay on all kinds of drives

    Registry warning:
    Sometimes, this problem is due to two Windows that have been corrupted registry entries. To resolve this problem, you must use the registry editor to delete the corrupted registry entries.
    However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  • Problems with audio/video streaming with USB devices on zero clients

    Hello:
    We are using view 6.1.1 in our environment and problems getting audio/video streaming to work well with the USB headsets, with zero customers.  Helmets are Jabra Link 360 and customers zero Samsung NC241.  Helmets are used as well for the phones to Jabber and also as audio device by default.   We started with the audio driver Teradici and everything seemed to work well, except that users could not answer calls on the headset itself with the button on the headset.  They were able to answer the calls of Windows though and the part worked fine.  In order to get the physical button to work, we had to first fill the USB receiver they use on the zero clients so that Windows will see as the device Jabra 360 and not the audio device Teradici.  Then we had the EHCI USB mode on them as well, and after that he started to work very well.  However, the helmets also serve as the audio device main as well as the communication (phone) device, with audio streaming continuously throughout the day.  With the current configuration, audio streaming will cut in and out during the day, and audio/video is not always to stay in either phase.

    I also applied the registry in this KB hack, VMware KB: improvement in audio quality when you use speakers or USB headsets with a desktop VMware view Horizon 5.2 , which helped clear up Crackle that we originally with the part phone headsets.  But there is still the issue of streaming audio.

    I wonder if the effectiveness of the bridging USB is not as effective and also is there a way to make this work better?  I read that the use of the pilot Teradici is supposed to help with audio/video problems, but do not know how that can be applied to USB devices as we use.  I've been reading upward on Teradici audio/video settings, but do not know where to go from there.  I was hoping that there are some best practices to use USB headsets with a view, but so far I'm not finding anything useful.

    For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

    We were finally getting help by the people of Cisco after validation in the here and even open a support ticket with VMware, which was open for more than a month without will.  Where others try to implement similar, here are our findings:

    • Zero clients combine traffic USB and PCoIP.  It is not good when there is a lot of audio/video/USB traffic, especially the USB headsets that also carry audio softphone.  In our case, the USB traffic was so dense that it was causing audio and video become troubled and freeze and eventually cause the pcoip_server service to break in the virtual machine itself and cause the client disconnect.  The fix?  Don't use customers zero with USB phones software, they are not just designed for this type of solution.
    • Thin clients are much better designed for USB softphones.  In our case, we used the Cisco VXME client, which is the method of support for the use of Windows thin clients with the client of the Horizon.  There is integration between the two products that isolates the VOIP traffic out of the virtual machine and keeps it local on the client itself.  Regular audio and video traffic still go through the virtual machine using Teradici or VMware RTAV driver.

    Hope this helps others who may run this question.  One thing we did not try was a wired headset using the AV sockets on the zero client and Teradici audio driver.  This can work, but our needs here were the headphones must be bluetooth, so we were forced to stick with USB.

    Hello

    If I understand correctly your computer does not detect the printer. You can try the following steps and check the results.

    1) inspect the cable USB and connection:- icon on the USB () facing up when the cable is connected to the product correctly. Check the back of your product and the back of your computer to make sure that the USB cable connects correctly and safely.

    After that you make sure that the USB cable connects correctly and safely, consider the following guidelines to check other potential problems associated with USB:

    • Connect any other USB device. Connect any other USB device to the computer and check if it is detected.
    • USB ports on the keyboard. USB ports on the keyboard and on the front of some computers is maybe not powerful enough to support the product. If the USB cable connects to the USB port on the keyboard, try to connect to it in another USB port on the computer.
    • Length of the cable USB. HP recommends that the lower USB cables or equal to 5 m (16 ft 5 in) long. However, a USB cable which is 5 m (16 ft 5 in) in length must be of high quality. Otherwise, HP recommends using a USB cable that is less than 2 m (3 ft 3 in). Do not use connection cables to increase the length of the cable. Use a powered USB hub, if you need more length.
    • USB ports replacing. Connect the USB cable to a different port on the computer to make sure that the USB port on the computer is not the cause of the problem.
    • Defective USB cable. Replace the USB cable to ensure that the existing cable is not defective.
    • Conflicting USB ports. Disconnect all other USB, USB, USB cameras scanners printers and all other connected USB devices. Start the connection of these devices one at a time to determine if the devices to use too much power. Plan to buy and install a hub USB powered if necessary.

    (2) power Off and power of the device.

    (3) update the Windows Device Manager:

  • Not truly Plug & Play with the generated for custom USB device .inf file

    Hello

    We have developed an application that uses the library OR-VISA-in order to communicate with our USB device via RAW communication.

    This is why we created an *.inf file using the driver Wizard. Once we plug-in the device for the first time, windows enumerates the device successfully and the 'Found new hardware' pop-up - window.

    We chose the .inf file that is created, and the device is properly installed.

    Our problem occurs when we plug one another device of the same type but with a different Serial-ID (which means that same VID, PID, only the ID for the USB - stick is different).

    For all devices with a Serial-ID, which has not been connected to windows, and yet, the "found new hardware" - window opens again so that you HAVE to choose the installation procedure. Despite the fact that the driver for this type of device was already installed, windows does not affect our driver .inf file to the device.

    If we chose, then in the "Found new hardware" procedure - the "Automatic Setup" window - the device is installed and can be used successfully.

    Of course, windows recognizes the right driver but does not automatically assign it without pop-up windows. We want to avoid the pop-up reapeating for each device.

    I did some research on this subject, and now I guess the problem is that the generated .inf file has no signature.

    Does anyone have experiences on this subject? Am I wrong? Does anyone have or had the same problem?

    All solutions next assign the same ID series for all devices?

    Here some quote the file setupapi.log (which seems to confirm my hypothesis):

    Hi Philip,

    Thanks a lot to post your question. I talked to our specialists in the United States on the signing of your created driver. You will find a brief description in the Readme of NI-VISA:

    "WHQL signature hardware USB.

    WHQL (Windows Hardware Quality Labs) sign your USB hardware using the driver NI-VISA for Windows XP / 2000, as part of this process it takes a PDB (program database) file to the underlying driver (NiViUsbK.sys).

    NiViUsbK.pdb is provided for this purpose. It is in \WinNT\NIvisa\USB. This is usually C:\VXIPNP\WinNT\NIvisa\USB. »

    To get it done, you must contact Microsoft. We are not allowed / able to sign your driver for you.
