No network connection & Adapter has issue - Win2008R2

I just installed Windows server 2008 R2 64bit edition. Installation went fine, except the new VM does not see any network connection. The network adapter in Device Manager is also showing as "Ethernet Controller" with a little warning sign beside it.

I have tried using various drivers, and tried each networking mode but nothing has worked so far. Has anyone got any suggestions on how to resolve this?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Ignore, resolved. I didnt realize that I had to map my network connection on the host to a different adapter (intel MT 1000 server) on the VM.
