  • 1.  Virtual NIC for Windows 2003

    Posted Jul 12, 2007 07:42 AM

    All,

    I alreader converted old NT4 servers and I used the AMD Ethernet Adapter as I saw in documenation.

    But for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003, which are the drivers I need to install ?

    Does the Vmware Tools install do the stuff ? Or where can I found the right vmware NIC driver ?

    Thanks

    Simply install the VMware tools (this will install the required vmxnet driver)

    Could you confirm it's different from the NT4 where one have to install the NIC driver manualy ?

    Thanks
