Virtual Machine & Network Card

Post by skrolin »

Hi, I have problems with the virtual box and the recognition of the network card . I can not put the network card in bridge mode on the virtual machine because it is not recognized .

Host System: Windows 8.1

How can I fix ?



Thank's

That picture doesn't tell me much. It says you have no bridged device selected at the moment, it doesn't say you can't select any.

However, if I'm to guess that no network cards (NICs) are listed in the dropdown then that will be because the VBox bridge device driver has not been installed. This looks like a Windows 8.x host, presumably 64bit. On that host you need to run the VirtualBox installer using "Run as administrator", and make sure you don't untick any of the options. You can also sometimes run into to problems with "Driver Signature Enforcement" being set to too high a level, i.e. where it silently rejects "untrusted" drivers without even prompting.
