> Install Pano Device USB Support
> In general, the decision to enable or disable USB support should be set in the DVM template itself. All DVMs that are created from the template inherit its properties so their USB support will reflect the USB support in the template.
> The USBD.SYS file must be present on the DVM template or individual DVMs to enable Pano USB support. This file is part of the Windows XP distribution, but is not installed on virtual machines by default during a Windows XP install. Pano Logic would love to make your life easier by installing this support automatically, but Microsoft doesn’t allow this file to be redistributed. Sorry.
> (Quick and Easy) To enable support using an existing driver.cab file:
> This method is the easiest because it doesn’t require that you have your Windows media. However, to use this method, your system must have its driver.cab file.

> 1. | From the Windows Start Menu, select Run....

> 2. | Type the following path to open the Windows cabinet file, then press Enter. The driver cabinet file opens.

> C:\WINDOWS\Driver Cache\i386\driver.cab

> 3. | Copy the USBD.SYS into the your system’s drivers folder:

> a. | Right-click on the USBD.SYS file, then choose Copy.

> b. | In the Windows Explorer address bar, type the following path:

> C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers

> c. | Paste the USBD.SYS file into the drivers folder.

> That’s it!
> Next Step(s): If you were in the process of installing Pano DAS, return to Install Pano DAS.
> To enable USB support using Windows media:
> This method requires that you have your Windows media. Perform this procedure on individual DVMs or the template that you use to clone DVMs.

> 1. | Retrieve the USBD.SYS file from the Windows XP disk.

> 2. | Manually copy and expand this file to the proper location on your virtual machine. You only need to perform this step the first time you configure a virtual machine or template to use USB devices.

> a. | Connect the Windows XP Service Pack 2 CD (.iso image) to the CD drive by editing the virtual machine settings in VMware VirtualCenter.

> b. | From a command prompt and assuming your virtual machine CD drive is on D: and your virtual machine hard drive is on C:, open a command prompt window and type the following commands:

> C:> cd windows\system32\drivers C: \windows\system32\drivers> copy d:\i386\usbd.sy_ . C: \windows\system32\drivers> expand usbd.sy_ usbd.sys

> That’s it!
> Next Step(s): If you were in the process of install the Pano DAS, return to Install Pano DAS.
