    Then I would have to assume that my device drivers are actual? I 
know my devices are linked to the virtual machine because that's what's 
reported by VM Ware but I'm not sure about the drivers. I always assumed 
they were virtual because the devices show up as virtual. I guess I'm 
showing my ignorance here again. I have no trouble connecting to and 
using windows update at
