Now in order to get Intel USB 3.0 Passthrough working with VMware Workstation 9 in Windows 7, make sure that you are running Now what’s more interesting is how Microsoft has implemented USB 3.0 support in Windows 8 – rather than adding the support on top of the current USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 software stack (which, as Flanagan notes, has its roots in Windows 95), Microsoft’s engineers have chosen to write an entirely new software stack for USB 3.0, retaining the older stack for 1.1 and 2.0 devices separately.”Īlso note that Windows 7 till now hasn’t provided NATIVE support for USB 3.0 controllers unlike Windows 8, and VMware Workstation 9 Documentation states that Workstation version 9 requires NATIVE USB 3.0 support in Windows OS in order to get Guaranteed USB Passthrough with all USB 3.0 controllers, and since NATIVE support for USB 3.0 is only being offered in Windows 8 – chances are certain, that we may face USB Passthrough ISSUE in Windows 7.įor more Information about Microsoft USB 3.0 implementation in Windows 8, follow below listed URL. Starting with version 9, Workstation introduced support for all the USB 3.0 Controllers provided that you are running Windows 8, and Windows 8 specifically, because Windows 8 introduces NATIVE USB 3.0 support, and Workstation relies on Windows 8 Native USB Driver stack to get working with all USB 3.0 Controller (as per documentation). VMware Workstation introduced support for USB 3.0 xHCI controllers with version 8 – but with version 8 – support has been limited to NEC USB 3.0 Controllers, and hence, with version 8, we don’t get native support for Intel USB 3.0 xHCI. In this Post, we illustrate how to get Intel USB 3.0 Extensible Host Controller Interface ( xHCI) Controller USB Passthrough working with VMware Workstation 9, when using Windows 7.
