Windows Server cant connect to internet

Post by Floral »

Hello!
I am using VirtualBox as a part of a course I am taking, but the virtual computer cannot find a network, and thus I cannot get an internet connection working.
Here is some information:
My laptop is a Sony Vaio with 32bit Windows 7
In VirtualBox I have Windows Server 2008 32bit
I have networking set to:
NAT
PCnet-Fast III Am 79c973
At Configuration tasks in Windows Server it says: Networking - None detected
And if i go to network and sharing center it simply tell me - Windows cannot find any networks.

Also I have another Virtual computer with Windows 7 that doesnt have this problem.
Can anyone point me in a direction to solve this, I really need to get this to work!

Use the Intel pro/1000 server virtual adapter and see if it works.
