Workstation 10.0.1 won't connect usb device

Hi guys,

I'm trying the trial of Workstation 10.0.1 but don't connect usb devices to the virtual machine.

In past i had installed Workstation 8 and all worked fine, but now i have format the pc and reinstalled windows 7 on a ssd and i'm looking for more performances and i thought to try new version of vmware workstation but seems not work correctly.

I have a brand new installation of windows 7 pro 64 bit sp1  host OS, with all update, on a Dell L502X laptop. Next i've installed Workstation 10.0.1 trial and created a new virtual machine with win xp sp1 all update (guest).

I have been trying to connect some USB devices: an usb hd, the integrated webcam, an usb key but all time i got the messages: The connection for the USB devices " XXXXXXXXXX " was unsuccessful. Driver error.

 

The laptop contain an usb 3.0 renesas controller, the virtual machine is configured with an usb 2.0 controller.

 

Why with Workstation 8 works all fine and instead with Workstation 10 the usb connection don't work ??

What i have to configure for usb get working ? What i have to looking for ?
