Basically what I have ATM is I'm running VMWARE and would like it to be able take control of one of two USB-Mass Storage devices I have. So I am wondering is there any way that I can "un-register" a USB device? I've done some googling but couldn't find anything obvious All the best Rus -- http://www.fsck.me.uk - My blog http://www.65535.net - $120 for a lifetime UNIX shell account ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
