From what I can tell something is wrong with your HOST usb drivers/device.
FYI - If you want to get it working then re-install your HOST windows 7, and after installing virus scanner, the first thing you should install is vmware player - BEFORE installing ANY drivers!
One more thing. If you want I can connect to your host via teamviewer (there is a linux rpm version) and have a look at it. I have no other ideas since everything *seems* to be covered in these three pages.
