I wish that this issue was made well known.ĭoes anyone know if there is a way I can get the NEC/RENESAS driver to work with my Asmedia / Startech PEXUSB311A1C USB 3.1 host controller? Even if it would only work at USB 3.0 speeds, I would be willing to install it to get my VMs 3.0 capable. Any USB 3.0 host controller Chipset other than the NEC/RENESAS chipset mentioned above.Īpparently my StarTech PEXUSB311A1C PCIe USB and any USB 3.0 host controller Chipset other than the NEC/RENESAS chipset card is unsupported.Known unsupported USB 3.0 xHCI controller host configurations:.Other configurations of the NEC/RENESAS chipset, driver, and firmware are not sufficiently tested and may not function as expected.Buffalo IFC-PCIE2U3S2 - PCI Express - 2 ports.

PCI Express USB 3.0 cards used in testing:.

The NEC/RENESAS is used in the majority of PCI Express USB 3.0 extension cards and on laptop and desktop motherboards for USB 3.0 support.

Driver: Renesas Electronics USB 3.0 Host Controller.

Known supported USB 3.0 xHCI controller host configurations:.

To support USB 3.0 device functionality in a guest operating system, the NEC USB 3.0 host controller and driver must be properly installed on the Windows host. It says that o n Windows 7 and Windows XP hosts, USB 3.0 support of Workstation in the guest operating system is experimental and limited to specific configurations of USB 3.0 hardware and drivers.Ī USB 3.0 device attached to the host is only known to work in guest operating systems with specific configurations of USB 3.0 host controllers using the NEC/RENESAS chipset and driver on the host.
