With some devices, the host may display the message 'The device can now safely be removed.' It will first be stopped to enable safe removal. T15:08:11.133-04:00| vmx| I120+ A USB device is about to be unplugged from the host and connected to this virtual machine. I've pretty much given up on getting this to work.

I turned on debugging for the VM and see a driver error for the device (see below). When I attempt to connect the device to the guest NOTHING happens. Vmware recognizes it as 'Chicony HP HD Webcam '. The latest VMware tools are installed in the guest. It is using the latest manufacturer supplied drivers. Attempt 2 to pretty this up.ДЄgain, this is a webcam physically installed in the laptop. Any additional troubleshooting ideas? Or confirmation this device does/does not work with workstation? Let me rephrase my question: Does anyone else have this hardware and have they been able to connect it to a guest os? If so, HOW? Barring that: I've been all over the basics. 'Connect'ing the device to the guest fails to actually connect the device (which means nothing to do inside the guest)

Other devices work connecting to this host (which means no need install/update vmware tools)

The device works on the host (which means no need to install drivers on the host)

Because of this I did not expect installing drivers inside the guest to have any effect. Hence 'nothing to see here folks' inside the guest. The device does not make the 'connect' to the guest.

In answer to of your followup questions: There is nothing to see in the guest (in device manager or anywhere else). Merely stating that nothing happened when trying the suggestions.
