    I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong. I was able to install Vista fine, but it doesn't detect my network cards. Wired or wireless. If i go into device manager i have a yellow exclamation next to Ethernet Controller and Other PCI Bridge Device.

    I just installed Vista using boot camp and evertything loads great. Network and all. What am I doing wrong in Parallels?

    Does Parallels need another driver?

    Did you try build 3120? I've installed Vista in that and it works well.

    Also, did you install the Parallels Tools in Vista?

    No wireless support in Vista

    Did you have any success getting a network connection in Vista with the Mac running wirelessly? This works fine for my XP VM, but not my Vista VM. When the notebook is connected wireless, the Vista VM fails to see the network.

    Info for the curious/inclinded to help:

    Running Parallels build 3120, with Parallels Tools is install.
    Physical machine is a MacBook Core 2 Duo
    Vista is the public release, Business edition upgrade (MS Action Pack)

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    mkenwood,

    the answer is in akac's post--install parallels tools in Vista. That worked for me too!
