I've got the VMWare trial version, and it's telling me that in order to connect my USB Device I've got to install the boot camp drivers CD. When I set up boot camp all I had to do to install the drivers was insert my Leopard installation DVD and it did the work. If I insert my Leopard DVD in the VMWare window it tells me it's going to begin installing mac os x for a remote installation for MacBook Air?

I'm operating a Mac Pro (Desktop) running Leopard (10.5.4) and Windows Vista Home Basic 34bit on VMWare Fusion Trial Version 1.5.1.

All I want to do is get a folder from my memory stick into a specific place inside VMWare.. It's downloaded content for a game, so it has to be in a specific folder but I can't even figure out a way to get it onto the desktop screen never mind into my computer or anywhere.

My USB devices do not show up under 'Computer'.

So my questions;

How do I install Boot Camp Drivers on this program?
Or how do I get the folder from my mac/USB drive into the Vista homepage without installing the drivers?
Would not having the drivers affect gameplay in any way? I've heard that I need to be in Host mode to get the best gameplay but that sounds so beyond my expertise.

Thanks for any help in advance.
