Hi, I change my network setting from NAT to bridged but there is an error shown.
[On the Network: Adapter 1 page, no bridged network adapter is selected]
I tried uninstall and install again but bridged doesn't work with the same error.
Does anyone can give me clue to fix it?
thanks, ango

Please update your profile so that we know what OS you are running on the host machine.

What NIC(s) do you have in the host? If the host is running Windows, look at the properties of a NIC from the host OS. Do you see an entry for VirtualBox Bridged Network Driver? Does it have a checkmark in the box?

Here is my profile.

virtual box version: 3.2.8
host: windows xp,
host NIC: Intel 82567 LM-3 Gigabit & VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter
guest: fedora

When choosing Bridged Adapter in the network setting, the drop down list in the name only show "Not selected" and no other option. In advanced, there is an adapter type shown as "Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop".

The message is telling you that VirtualBox cannot find any NIC in the host to bridge to. Check the properties of the NIC(s) in the host as suggested earlier. If there is no VirtualBox driver shown, try doing a repair install of VirtualBox.
