Hello Jo, I contact you again concerning Vmware as I have the same problem with a new USB device on Vmware. I have bought an RC Simulation software (Easy Fly 4). It comes with a gamepad (4 axes, no button). My device is not even recognized on Vmware... (exacty the same problem I had with Philips foot controller). I am running Vmware fusion last version (7.1.0). The client is running Windows XP SP1. Thank you for your help.

YEEESSSSSS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really did not expect to find an answer to my problem, and that someone would take its time for helping a poor noob ! Thank you so much Johannes !!!!!! PS : I can not understand why VMware blocks HID devices by design....

Johannes, I have tried this : http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=2007368&sliceId=1&docTypeID=DT_KB_1_1&dialogID=229191052&stateId=0%200%20229187853 but it does not change anything. Concerning an "error code" when connecting the foot control, no, I do not receive any. Just nothing happens !! (either on MacOs or on Vmware). I am afraid I do not have any earlier version of fusion. Concerning the debug log, what exactly do you need? How could I send it to you ? Thank you again for trying to help me.

Hello Johannes, and thank you for your answer. I tried the debugging, but it did not work. I am using Fusion 4.0.2 , and MacOs 10.6.8, windows XP pr SP3. I do not not any problem with my USB devices (Wacom table, Lexar card reader, Canon printer, USB storage keys, Philips digital pocket memo 9600,...) , but my foot control is not even detected !!! -> no sound when connecting/deconnecting (even on MacOs, it is not detected, but is not compatible with MacOs). I have tried it on a PC running XP, and it works perfectly...
