Vista - Networking in Virtual PC fails

3 Weeks Ago

I recently upgraded the network card software on my Windows 7 PC..

The networking of the host works fine.

However, the networking on the guest operation system on Virtual PC
does not work.

If I check the IP config of the Virtual PC it begins with a 169...
address..

If I check the settings of the Networking of the Virtual Machine, the
only options available are:

None Connected
Internal Network
Shared NAT

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Michael

Check to see if the Virtual Network service are installed and checked
for the new NIC? It's likely they aren't since you added the NIC
after VPC was installed.
