I'm trying to boot my virtualbox from winpe to do a capture of my disk and place it on a network share. I get an error message about the network driver missing when I try to map the network share from WinPi command prompt. Any ideas where I can obtain the VirtualBox network driver?

Thanks!

Greetings, Fad,

Have you tried downloading and installing Guest Additions?

The easiest way would be to try some of the other adapters - Intel PRO/1000 T Server could be a good choice.
Otherwise you will have to find the proper driver for the adapter and add it to the CD.

Thanks for your replies. I managed to extract the drivers from Guest Additions and added them to winpe but that didnt help. I also tried different network card models without any success. WinPe Still needs its own drivers. Any ideas where I can get the drivers for the below hardware?

Intel Pro /1000 T Server
PCI\Ven_8086&DEV_1004&SUBSYS_10048086

Fad

Awesome. I got the drivers, injected them in WinPe, booted from winpe and connected to the network just fine!

Thanks!!
