    Hi,

    I'm still using a trial version of Parallels Desktop 7, evaluating if I want to buy it.

    I installed Windows 7. Everything seems to work, except the network. The drivers seem to have a conflict.

    I have attached a screenshot displaying the problem. It's in Dutch, so the error message in English would be this : "This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system. (Code 12)"

    Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Hi, take a look into article http://kb.parallels.com/en/7047 - it seems that it applies to your case

    Thanks - I did not have the ATI PCI Express(3GIO) Filter Driver, but I did have an AMD PCI Express(3GIO) Filter Driver, and uninstalling that solved the problem!

    cant connect t network in windows - Neither ATI PCI nor AMD PCI exist

    Hi, I followed the instruction link that tells me to uninstall either the ATI PCI Express(3GIO) Filter Driver or AMD PCI Express(3GIO) Filter Driver in the system device. However, i checked mine and it does not have either of those drivers.

    I just installed desktop parallel 7 in a late 2011 macbook air. I could connect to the internet fine, just cannot find any device in the network.

    Appreciate your help!

    please make sure that you are using Shared Networking. Then click Start -> Run and execute cmd.exe. Type in the appeared window command "ipconfig /all" (make sure that all output fits to the window). Then, without closing the window, click Parallels Destkop menu "Help"->"Report a Problem", send a problem report (it is not necessary to provide description) and post here the report ID.

    Oops :) I have not noticed that internet in your VM works fine and the problem is "I could connect to the internet fine, just cannot find any device in the network."

    The thing is that while in Shared Networking it is impossible to browse the network-computers (Shared Networking acts like barrier between VM and the rest of the world), but you always can connect to another computer using its name.

    Alternatively you could try to switch from Shared to "Bridged to Default" networking type. But it is not guaranteed to work in all network environments.

    ok so let me see if i understand this correctly, using virtual machine such as parallel, i won't be able to see the other computers in the network, but if i want to connect to a specific computer in the network, i can do it directly by inputing the IP address of the computer. is that right?

    Yes, you are right with one correction: it is not possible in Shared-networking mode, but if Bridged works in your environment, in Bridged you can also browse computers.

    Hi, please describe in details what doesn't work. Can you connect from browser in Win to for example www.google.com? If not, what is the result?

    please also either resend the problem-report with the step "Click Start -> Run and execute cmd.exe. Type in the appeared window command "ipconfig /all" (make sure that all output fits to the window). Then, without closing the window, click Parallels Destkop menu "Help"->"Report a Problem" or just post here the output of ipconfig (without /all).

    Hi Elric, Thank you very much for the quick response, For some reason that I am not aware of, I can connect to the internet now. I've been trying to connect to websites like google for 4 days and I tried it again after I saw your response and it worked suddenly. Hopefully this would last!! THANKS SO MUCH AGAIN

    Can't connect to IE

    Hello, I've tried to ignore that I cannot connect to the internet for weeks now because I don't use Internet Explorer much on the windows side but I do need it now and I still cannot connect. I am not sure why and I've tried everything and read as many troubleshooting blogs as possible but I cannot figure out what is wrong. Can you please help? Please see attached image. [​IMG]

    Strange. I'd suggest you to try another browser (for example FireFox or Chrome). Also we can make remote session to your computer and check the issue locally.

    I'm available 11.00-18.00GMT working days. Send me your email address via forum's private messages if the session is ok for you.
