I have tested pre11on 32 bit vista and xp, seems to work ok.

I have just noticed a separate issue, a UDF iso image connected to the
vista vm has a single file visible readme.txt which states that the OS
needs to support UDF to see the content, I am not sure if that was the
case before i installed the drivers, is it a known problem/effect ?
Would it be solved by using the "device hiding patch" that James
mentioned?
