Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

VMware connection problem

    Hi,

    I'm having difficulties with VMWare. I can't access an external hard drive connected to the host PC.
    When I connect an external drive I get a message saying "The following devices can be connected to this virtual machine using the status bar or chosing VM>Removable devices". When I connect using this method, the drive is disconnected from the host PC, the symbol in the status bar on the virtual PC becomes active and tells me I'm connected but I still cant see the drive in my computer / windows explorer etc..
    The external drive works fine on the host PC.
    I am able to connect to other external devices from with the virtual machine using the above method (including DVD drive).
    Running WinXP Pro on host and virtual.
    VMware workstation version 6.5.1

    Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks
