Aha, but you are able to re-enable this option again, right? Actually I don't know why this happens in your case but I think the passthrough setting is resetted if the virtual DVD/CDROM device changes, for example if you switch from the host CDROM to an .iso image and then back. The same might happen if the host DVD/CDROM device vanishes, for instance if a laptop is removed from his dogging station. Does any of these two options apply to you? Kind regards, Frank -- Dr.-Ing.
