All, I am getting an error when trying to login with my smart card to a hyper-v guest: "The smart card requires drivers that are not present on this system."
Any Ideas?
I am trying to use my smart card on a Hyper-V guest -Running Windows 8.1 -Microsoft image -Joined to the domain -I don't see a smart card reader in device manager, but not sure if I should in Hyper-V Guest
With a host -Running 8.1 -Not joined to the domain -With integrated card reader -With TPM enabled -The smart card reader appears in device manager and has the latest driver -The smart card appears in device manager when it is plugged in -Connected with wired LAN
With a connection (rdp) -That has smart cards option enabled (checked)
I have tried an external USB card reader and get the same result. My card works on other machines that are not Hyper-V guests. I have tried installing the smart card drivers from Lenovo on the guest which does not help. I have searched ITWEB and binged for a solution but can't find one.
Anyone have any ideas of what I can do to get this to work?

Press Windows + R key to launch Run command. Type gpedit. msc in the Run dialog box and click OK. Right-click “Turn On Smart Card Plug and Play Service” and select “Edit.” In the Properties dialog, select “Disabled” to turn off this service and remove the smart card option from the login screen.
Windows 10: Right click the Windows logo (lower left corner of your screen). Click System, select Device Manager link (upper left corner of the screen), scroll down to Smart card readers, select the little triangle next to it to open it up.
Navigate to “Computer Configuration>Policies>Windows Settings>Local Policies>Security Options>Interactive logon: Require smart cards” Right-click “Interactive logon: Require smart cards” and select “Edit.” In the Properties dialog, select “Disabled” to turn off this service.
I have got this to work now. Apparently you need a driver for the smart card itself as well and the reader. Installing this driver on my VM Guest Fixed the issue.
What I did:
Go to: http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Search.aspx?q=ge…
And get:
=Gemalto - Other hardware, Smart Cards - Gemalto IDPrime MD Smart Card
=Windows 7,Windows 8,Windows 8.1 Drivers,Windows Server 2008 R2,Windows Server 2012,Windows Server 2012 R2 Drivers
=Get latest version (8.4.3.0 in my case)
Then
Download the driver from your cart to a directory
Unzip it
Right click on the .inf and click install
Try your card (no reboot necessary for me)
