    Hello,
    I'm running the most recent version of Parallels 6 for Mac with a Win XP virtual machine.

    I previously had no trouble using USB devices on the Windows side, but am no longer able to do so. In device manager, both USB drivers have yellow exclamation points:
    Intel(R) 82801FB/FBM USB Universal Host Controller - 2658
    Intel(R) 82801FB/FBM USB2 Enhanced Host Controller - 265C.

    I've tried updating the drivers, uninstalling and reinstalling, disabling and re-enabling the USB controller via the parallels configuration page, but nothing has helped.

    I've tried connecting flashdrives and my TI-84 calculators, but nothing appears on the windows side.

    Did you try to reinstall Parallels tools?

    I tried reinstalling parallels tools, but it didn't fix the issue. Thanks, though.
