I haven't actually debricked one yet so...

Win 7 64 bit... probably a signed driver issue. that is a total guess but I would think 64 bit windows was a poor choice - It's probably a driver issue in Win

*throw rocks now*

Windows XP Virtualized - hmm I dont recall much about the few times I played with this but more or less I recall it living in a "wrapper" - again I would have to think this is a poor choice
I'm so lost at this point, I don't know if it's a driver issue or a bad physical connection. So far, I've been able to use the USB port on the kindle and pass it to the virtualized XP with no problem (other usb devices as well). Worst case scenario, I have an old laptop running Vista 32-bit I can use.

In fact I wont assume that...
Actually, I do have it installed, following the instructions from stranger_st's post.

I've watched the video but I'll take a look at it again...

And since I haven't received a clear answer yet: which is the best OS to use for this project? Or do I need to use several?
