I installed Parallels on my iMac, but after clicking the green triangle to start the Windows XP installation process the following error message appears: "Problem with network adapter detected. Please check if network cable is connected to the physical network adapter attached to the virtual machine." Can someone help? My hardware: Machine Name: iMac Machine Model: iMac5,1 Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor Speed: 2.16 GHz Number Of Processors: 1 Total Number Of Cores: 2 L2 Cache (per processor): 4 MB Memory: 1 GB Bus Speed: 667 MHz Boot ROM Version: IM51.0090.B00 SMC Version: 1.9f4
You can ignore that message during the install. Make sure you are using the latest Parallels build (1940). After you get the guest installed, you can tweak networking.
Thanks joem, I am ignoring the message, but still no sucess. Nothing is happening at all. I tried installing from disk and from image. Somethings wrong with XP disk or software?
