Hi,

My virtual machine running WS2012R2 runs like a charm, with one exception: I have no way of connecting to Ethernet.

Regarding the network settings I have:
Adapter 1 - Internal Network
Adapter 2 - Host only Adapter
Adapter 3 - NAT

Troubleshooting Internet Connections says that there is "no driver for your network adapter". All VM-adapters are technically connected, but Windows could not detect any networking hardware, so I can not configure anything.

I have no idea what to check else, but maybe I am missing something really obvious. Just in case I attached the
VM logfiles.

00:00:01.612820 Guest OS type: 'WindowsNT'

You first should fix the version. It needs to be Windows 2012 and 64_bit

Then you need to open the advanced section of the guest settings and make sure that the Intel 1000 adapter is selected.

Thanks, that did fix it. The missing Intel1000 Adapters seemed to be the problem.

WindowsNT was too old to have Intel drivers by default so the template does not use them.
