Network Adapters

Post by Ioannis_Z »

Dear all,
I am using Windows 10 Host system and I run the VM in my Windows laptop.
You can see in the attachment my settings.
The problem I face is the following:
As you can see in the attachment in the Network Field the are 3 Intel Adapters shown that they are not supported if I want to use an Intel Utility Tool for configure them. For instance teaming feature.
A solution on this is to use more lets say "new" Intel adapters that can be handled by the tool.
The question is....What do I have to do with this issue ? Is there any way to add newer Network Intel adapters running in this VM Configuration?
I am using the last updated VM release.
The question is naive I know but I do not have experience working with VM;s

I'm afraid not. The provided simulations are what they are.

Also, don't use third party tools or drivers with simulated hardware. That will not work. Use the VM settings dialogs. The simulated hardware is chosen by the guest OS template because that OS has native support for that hardware, hence it is seldom necessary or appropriate to install drivers.
