It's almost as if something in the Mac side of things is in control of the ANT and won't let go. So it seems that something has happened with either the Garmin ANT USB stick itself (which seems unlikely) or something is corrupted in either the Mac configuration or the Fusion platform with respect to how the USB ports are enabled and passed back and forth from the Mac environment to the Windows environment. Third - the Mac takes a very long long long time to shut down, and on at least a few occasions has failed to do so - just a continual spinning color wheel or no indication of anything other than my background wallpaper remaining in place indefinitely. Second - if the ANT USB stick was in a USB port, it is now gone from the entire system - the System Info window doesn't even show it and it makes no difference whether the device is plugged in or out repeatedly. It says this despite the Virtual machine Library window showing that everything is off. I also find that after any problem in a Virtual system system three things happen.įirst - any attempt to launch another virtual machine gives me a window message saying that it appears other virtual systems are already running so I might not have access to all devices. It's with the re-install of the Garmin ANT driver that I see the Invalid Pipe Error the most often. Now, I have uninstalled and attempted to reinstall the Garmin ANT but with no success. That's not going on now, though the current issue seems worse. When I was first setting up the Garmin ANT USB device I found that unless I had checked the box in the USB settings to enable the device I would get a Kernel Panic and the joy of rebooting the whole system. I may also get a black screen with a popup message window telling me that there is an invalid pipe. If I click on it and try to connect it, all sorts of bad things happen - the Virtual system may turn itself off or it may hang indefinitely. No matter what virtual system I launch, the icon in the bottom shows as grayed out. I also found that with the new Hard drive I can also get the former version that would not launch, to launch. I had two earlier version of the file providing the Windows XP system backed up and have been able to launch both of them. Though Disk Utility from the Install DVD was able to fix the Invalid Record issue - it returned, so a new hard drive is in the system now. My Windows XP virtual system also refused to launch, simply giving me a black window screen and saying in the lower left that "The virtual machine is off" and never going further. Something bad happened to my system earlier this week (Mac Pro) - my WD My Book went belly up and my primary hard drive in the system developed Invalid Record Count errors.
