For Virtual PC you need this DOS network driver: http://developer.intel.com/design/network/drivers/nd2_300.htm For the network settings in Virtual PC my preferred choice is my (W)LAN card, e.g., Intel(R) WiFi Link 5100 AGN. I don't use "Local only" or "NAT". This way the will get its own IP via DHCP. For IPX in VPC: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2004/11/18/260337.aspx Also see <http://www.ohmancorp.com/RefWin-VirtualPC-VMNet622.asp> for some more information, although this page is about MS-DOS.
