I've changed this line in the vm config file:</FONT><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Monaco"><BR></FONT><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Monaco">serial0.fileName = "COM1"</FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Monaco"><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Monaco">which has allowed VMware to detect my serial port. However, I'm not sure what to change this setting to in the VM under Preferences. It's currently set to the path for the port on Linux - entering COM1 under preference doesn't appear to work. Is there a relative path that needs to be entered for Windows? (I'm not a programmer, and I'm not entirely sure how to search for this answer.)</FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Monaco"><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Monaco">Also, does anyone know what I might need to add to the config file in order for the VM to see a USB port? I have the ACG flash reader and am planning on connecting it through USB. </FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Monaco"><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Monaco">Thanks in advance for any help -</FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Monaco"><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Monaco">Jen King</FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Monaco">UC Berkeley</FONT></DIV></DIV></BODY></HTML>
