Re: Error 31: A device attached to the system is not functioning, Windows 7 host, v. 7.1.4

I receive an error when the VM first starts.

 

"Host USB device connections disabled. The connection to the VMware USB arbitration service was unsuccessful. Please check the status of this service in the Microsoft Management Console."

 

I try and start the usb arbitration service and receive "Error 31". Like I said, this was working fine, and then I started getting this error. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, I have deleted the upperfilters in the registry, I have uninstalled all USB devices in device manager, and nothing works. I don't have the AMD driver, and I don't have the .SYS file in c:\windows\system32 folder.

 

Edit:

Unable to use any USB drive in any vm client, USB works on the host OS. I can also map an .ISO as my CDRom.
