USB connection issue in VM's (vCenter 5.5)

Howdy,

Here's my issue, I can connect to an external USB hard drive successfully from within a vCenter VM (Windows 2008) on my Dell M4300 laptop. When I try to do the same from another laptop (login using vSphere into vCenter VM) the USB drive will not appear, I only see the following:

"Connect to USB device -> Shared O2Micro CCID SC Reader 0"

Is this an issue with the secondary laptop? I use the same administrator account on the secondary laptop as I did on the primary but will still not provide me with access to the USB drive.

Any suggestions?

Looks like it was a driver issue on the secondary laptop.

Cheers!!
