Hi Min, Could you please check how it works in build 62 and 64? You don't need to install the drivers, just grab netkvmco.dll from these builds and try running them. Thank you. Vadim.

I tried build49 ,still hit this issue on win7-32 bit guests ,can not trigger it on win7-64 .
This functionality is must for server OSes only. Can be moved to lower priority.
