    I had these problems before, installed 3186 hoping it would solve them, but it did not.

    1. WMP 11 stutters every 5 seconds or so. I tried iTunes in the same VM, it works perfectly.

    2. I tried connecting a Bluetooth dongle, so I can use my Motorola bluetooth stereo headphone from the VM (MacOS does not support AD2P, so I cannot use the headphone from the Mac side). When I connect the USB dongle, I get -
    a. connection to my bluetooth mouse stops working on the MacOS side (seems normal, the Mac is using the dongle)
    b. when I try to attach the dongle from Parallels in the devices menu, I get "USB device you are trying to connect to the virtual machine is being used by another application. etc". I tried several times with same result.
    The dongle (and my bluetooth stereo handset) work in VMWare Fusion.

    Any ideas on how to solve these problems?

    Same problem with Bluetooth dongle

    It works perfectly on Vista in Bootcamp on this Imac, but in Xp in the VM, no go and I get the device being used error.
