Running Windows 7 in Hyper-V

I am unable to locate a NIC driver for windows 7 in Hyper-V. I originally
installed in VPC 2007 and that was extremely slow, so I moved it to Hyper-V.

There was no NIC problem in 2007, but it will not recognize it in Hyper-V.
Any help?

Jeff

PS. I have been looking for a group dedicated to Windows 7 Beta issues.

I fixed my own issue. It was as simple as adding a legacy NIC. Sorry for
the wasted post.

Use the legacy NIC?

I've got it running here and it's fine!

The windows 7 beta newsgroups are only available to beta testers. There
may be public ones available later.

I am not sure why you needed to add a legacy NIC. WIN7 beta is Hyper-V
aware and does not require Integration Components. It just worked when I
installed it under Hyper-V running on Server 2008 R2 beta.
