I do not know anything about Linux Gadget driver. But anything involving
usbser.sys as one of the interface driver for a USB composite device
will be difficult under Windows XP. Windows does support CDC-ACM but
Microsoft driver usbser.sys is is said to be buggy and problematic

A bit different but kind of related. You might want to try it to see
if it works.

Detailed discussion in usb.org:
http://www.usb.org/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=13308
The conclusion is option 2 does not work under XP.
Option 3 may or may not work if you apply the hotfixes.

By the way, I think the inf example in the following document
will not work under Windows Vista but I have neither a
Linux gadget device nor Vista OS to test.

Proper inf files: (to work under XP and Vista):

The document also mentions Hyperteminal which is not that good.
