USB Support In Hyper-V

I am running Windows 8.1. I start Hyper-V and need to install which Operating Systems to have USB support inside of the VM? Is this possible? I tried windows 7 and I do not see Enhanced Session Mode. I tried windows 8.1 and again I do not see Enhanced
Session Mode. Is it possible to have USB access in a Hyper-V VM?

Hi flagrantHippo,
You need to right click the Hyper-V host, then select
Hyper-V settings, Enhanced Session Mode is available there.
Follow this blog to configure the settings:
Overview: Client Hyper-V Enhanced Session Mode in Windows 8.1

    Hi Sir,
    Client hyper-v needs the host OS is x64 win 8/8.1 Pro/Ent :
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh857623.aspx
    Enhanced session mode comes with win8.1/server2012R2 , also the guest OS should be 2012R2/win8.1 :

  • 10.6.8 Update - No USB Support - Help!

    Early 2008 MBP under warranty for another 34 days. Nothing interesting installed beyond usual Mac, MS and Adobe software. Occassionally run Parallels 6, but not today and not recently.
    At 9:00 was offered the auto update to 10.6.8. Closed open apps and let the MBP do its thing.
    On reboot the usual screen came up but there was no trackpad or keyboard support. Was able to use a bluetooth mouse and all apps opened but still unable to type anything or use the trackpad mouse. Also noted that there was no USB support for an external drive, or keyboard (or I would have tried to roll back to 10.6.7 with Time Machine.
    Rebooted multiple times with the same outcome.
    Spoke to Apple and they had no suggestions except to get warranty help. Well that's 50 miles away (service provider, not an Apple store). Any suggestions to save me two trips (there and back to deliver and pick it up)?

    I have a early 2008 macbookpro 2.8 duel with silver keys.
    I purchaed the 10.6 disk from the apple store. I've had the machine for years and purchased it refurbished from apple.
    I did the erase and install and migrated everything over from external drive, then did update to 10.6.8 and the usb ports still would stop working after a few hours.. Then I read on another apple community forus to reset pram, and pull out the power cable, take out the battery and hold power key for 5 seconds, then restart. that seemed to fix usb issue so far..
    But overall my computer seems to be running slower then when using just 10.5.8 and it did not wake from sleep once and I had to force power off and restart.. But maybe its just getting used to 10.6.8. we will see..
    Also, on another note, my battery is totally dead, and I can only run computer with power cable.. Will this affect things? it never did with 10.5.8..
    Oh, on my erase and install, I just did the simplest version and did not do the full erase to zero using he advanced security measures.. I just did the one where it writes on top of everything..

  • Solaris 10 Oracle VDI VirtualBox 3.2 USB support

    Dear folks,
    This my first time to the forum, since we are in the progress of deploying 240+ thin clients using Oracle VDI. I was piloting the project in a desktop machines with Sunray 3i. I installed Solaris 10 9/10 and Oracle VDI 3.2.1. However, while I was creating WinXP VM in Virtualbox 3.2 -the one which came with Oracle VDI 3.2- I got that error about being unable to connect to USB proxy server. Eventually this error leads to that all my VMs doesn't support USB redirection. So USB flash disk drive doesn't work in my Sunray 3i. Reading VirtualBox documentation Installing on Solaris hosts , I came across this info "*This does not apply to Solaris 10 hosts due to lack of USB support.*" Is this real?
    Does this mean I can't redirect USB hardware to my VMs in the server via Sunray 3i? If this is true, what is the workaround for this problem?
    Please advise me. . .

    Other than the documentation stating it doesn't work, in practice have you tested it to not work also?
    We have two Solaris 10u5 machines running Vbox 3.2.12 and they pass through USB fine with our Sun Ray 3's (not 3i's but that shouldn't matter).
    Did you enable USB passthrough in the VDI core by selecting the desktop pool and going to the Settings -> Sun Ray RDP Settings? Theres checkboxes to enable USB/smartcard pass through.

  • Java usb support for  windows

    Hello All
    I do no know if this is the right place to post this topic, but does anyone know of an api that provides usb support for windows. I was looking a jusb, but the documentation says it only has support for linux. So far the best I have found is Mr Stahl's thesis which provides very limited support for windows. I was wondering if there was anything more stable (free or not)
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Im trying to connect 2 computers using USB or Parallell port. On one computer I want to install a printer (regular windows printer) that prints through either USB or the Parallell port. On the other computer I want to listen on the Parallell port/USB port and receive the input and write it to a file.
    Does anyone have a some sample code to do this? I've tried the following code (rxtx) but it cant find more than 2 ports (one parallel and one serial - no USBs even though I have 5 USB ports). Since I could only find the USB I tried to listen on the Parallell port. Problem is that I dont receive any data.
    <---THE CODE--->
    Enumeration port_list = gnu.io.CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers();
    while (port_list.hasMoreElements ()) {
    CommPortIdentifier port_id = (CommPortIdentifier)port_list.nextElement ();
              if(port_id.getPortType () == CommPortIdentifier.PORT_PARALLEL) {
                   System.out.println("Found port "+port_id.getName()+ "id "+port_id);
                   CommPort commPort = port_id.open("",2000);               
                   InputStream is = commPort.getInputStream();
                   byte buffert[]=new byte[1024];
              int len;
              System.out.println(">>>>>>>>len "+is.read(buffert));
              while((len=is.read(buffert))==-1)
                   Thread.sleep(500);
                   is = commPort.getInputStream();
                   System.out.println(">>>>>>>>len "+len);

  • DPM 2012 R2 Support and Hyper-V Workloads on REFS Storage

    We have deployed all of our Virtual Machines on REFS filesystem. We are in the process of deploying DPM 2012 R2 and would like to know if there is any information available from Microsoft as to when REFS will be supported for Hyper-V workloads on REFS. Any
    information will help us plan for whether to move Hyper-V loads to NTFS.
    I can see the Windows Server 2003 is now supported in UR2 and wonder if there is a roadmap available that will be included in future UR for DPM 2012 R2.
    Also any information for re-enabling the integrity checking in VHDX after we move a VM from REFS to NTFS would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    I do not believe we will be adding support for protecting Hyper-V hosted on REFS in the near term, so plan on using NTFS.
    If you are already using REFS and are getting backup failures, you can create the following registry key on the Protected Server, restart DPMRA service and run a consistency check.
    A. On protected server, browse to the registry path: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\Agent\2.0.
    B. Create a DWORD registry value called "ForceFixup" and set it to 0x1.
    C. Restart the DPMRA service on protected server.
    NOTE - This will disable use of DPM filter so there will be some backup and possible server performance tradeoffs.
     We do not announce fixes in upcoming UR releases.

  • [SOLVED] Virtualbox and USB Support

    I use Virtualbox quite regularly for work and school. I have Windows installed within Virtualbox, and I use it whenever school or work requires. However, USB support has never worked for me (even with the fstab addition) and I thought maybe I'll spend some time to figure this out.
    Basically, I may want to do things like insert a flash drive and make it available to the VM, or even sometimes an MP3 player or even my PSP. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work. There USB filters, but often times the device I want is greyed out, and can't be selected. When I am able to select a device to create a filter, it doesn't do anything. I did check the Wiki already.
    Maybe I'm missing something? Or is USB support in Virtualbox just that bad? I was hoping there would be some sort of way I can dedicate a USB port to Virtualbox, and make it exclusive. I think VMWare can do that but I'm not sure that Virtualbox can.

    I hope it's ok to post in this thread because if I started a new thread the title would be identical.  I am also using virtualbox_bin from AUR and while USB passthrough works just fine to my Windows XP guest, it can't be working any faster than USB v1.1 speed.  I have the appropriate entry in /etc/fstab and am a member of the virtualbox group.  No permissions problems and from what I can tell there's no corruption of data to/from any of my USB flash drives.  The only issue I've had other than the aforementioned lack of speed is with a 1TB Western Digital Passport.  It seemed to have "lost" some directories.  In other words they appeared completely empty on the XP side.  After shutting down the guest I verified that all of the files were indeed still there and intact.  I've basically chalked that one up to a deficiency in Windows XP.  But this speed issue is seriously holding me back.

  • Guest executed an intercepting instruction not supported by Hyper-V instruction emulation; event ID:18570

    Hi, Just started to play with Hyper V on win 8.1 enterprise,  before this I was using VPC 2007 for (32 bit guest) and vmware (64 bit guest)
    Here is the problem I have, I have windows 7 32 as a guest running till date using vpc 2007, now I am trying to use the vhd file in hyper v
    Option 1
     Tried configuring the same vhd file in hyperv by uninstalling (addins) and removing network card configuration and shared folder
    Option 2
     Tried converting vhd to vhdx using hyperv gui and ps command line
    In the both the options when I start the vm on hyperv, the cursor just blinks
    In the event log I get to see this,  any solutions for this would be of great help
    'abcd' was faulted because the guest executed an intercepting instruction not supported by Hyper-V instruction emulation. If the problem persists, contact Product Support. (Virtual machine ID E965D4B5-E976-45FD-B004-F51C12662360)

    Uninstall the VPC VMAdditions from within the VM - they are trying to do something that Hyper-V does not allow.
    Hyper-V is not Virtual Server and the Virtual Server VMAdditions are not compatible with Hyper-V.
    Also, you have to set the HAL to re-detect.  VPC relied on a custom HAL, and if the OS in your VM is old enough, it won't automatically detect the change and will continue to use the VPC compatible HAL.

  • HP F4580 on Imac in windows 7 bootcamp, won't install "no usb support" works OK on Mac side

    Trying to install my HP F4580 so I can print from the Windows partition on my iMac,. Downloaded and ran the drvier utility but it fails saying "this PC has no USB support". Whereas the printer works fine on the Mac side of the partition.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi,
    Although installing the printer on Windows by using Bootcamp may work, it is not guaranteed...
    The windows OS actually being installed as a virtual envoirnment, which means your Windows OS is using your Mac OS USB drivers as the host, and not those intended for Windows.
    Therefore it is not being recognized by the software.
    You may find some more information at the document below:

  • Disabling Legacy USB Support

    Hi all,
    I have a portable drive which connects to the system via a USB Y cable (with two male USB-A connectors - one draws power to aid the main one and give the drive extra power - both need to be plugged in). In OS X, it's recognized immediately after I boot up, but in Windows I must unplug both connectors and plug them back in before Windows will see it properly.
    I spoke to SimpleTech/Hitatchi, the manufacturers, and they told me I needed to disable Legacy USB Support in my system's BIOS to fix the issue. Of course, Bootcamp doesn't have BIOS.
    Is there any way I can do this?
    All help is appreciated.

    If your DVD blanks are an off-brand, likely you are going to have a lot of trouble.
    You might also have trouble if either your DVD writer or DVD reader are too old. I do not pretend to understand all the details, but it seems the "standards" have changed rather a lot, and you cannot take compatibility for granted.

  • CRIO USB Support software drivers

    Hi everybody,
    I'm working on a cRIO 9012 with a NI-9215 module on LabVIEW 2012 (evaluation version). The cRIO 9012 disposes of an USB port on which I put a stick.
    I want to put data on my stick, I made a VI and use the path u:\texte.txt where "texte.txt" is already created in the USB stick.
    I found in ni topics that I have to install "USB Support" software, I tried to add it on my RT target but it is not present in softwares' three. I get only "UBS passport", you can see it in attached picture.
    I suppose that drivers/softwares are avaible but I don't find its. Somebody could get me out of this ?
