VirtualBox 5.2.2 still messes up Win7 x64 networking

Post by dfatvb »

Installing virtualbox on Win7 x64 pro still messes up networking where the main NIC is stuck "identifying". You still have to use msiparams NETWORKTYPE=NDIS5

Can that be fixed please!

I have never had to do that for Windows 7 Pro x64 with any 5.1 or 5.2 version of VirtualBox. What type of networking are you using in the vm?
