Hi Joseph, I would connect the device and give it to your Windows VM. You would need the driver disk, I imagine. Windows, virtualized or not, isn't smart enough to be able to use all functions of all devices without manufacturer support. Of course, the same is true of macs, but it might sometimes seem to not be so. At any rate, yes, use the disk, as long as it works with your virtualized Windows version of course. Best, Zack.
