Hi,

I moved my old Parallels installation from my older Mac to my new Mac. Now, I don't see any network interfaces in Windows 7. I know I could get rid of this issue by reinstalling Windows 7, but I was hoping someone could help me get my interface card back.

Any idea?

Old Mac: MacBook Pro 15" 2007
New Mac: MacBook Pro 17" Winter 2011

Thanks,
Kian
 
Hi

Could you please answer some questions?
Are Parallels tools installed?
Is your VM OS type - Windows 7?

Send problem report on running VM please. (Help->Report a Problem in window mode)

Thank you
 
Please follow the checklist below:
1. Navigate to Parallels Desktop/Parallels Workstation -> Preferences -> Network, and on that page click "Restore Defaults" button

2. Stop the Virtual Machine. Open Configuration windows from Virtual Machine menu > Configure.
- Under Hardware section check that Network Adapter is present in list, If it is missing, click "+" and add Network Adapter

3. Click Network Adapter 1 in the Virtual Machine Configuration page
- Verify that Connect is selected
- Make sure that the correct type of Network is selected - Shared or Bridged
NOTE: Host-Only Network does not provide Internet access in virtual machine

4. In Guest OS check that settings for Network Interface are valid.
- In case of a Shared Network, the IP address should be in range 10.211.55.1 -10.211.55.254
- In case of a Bridged Network, you need to either setup IP manually, or setup DHCP server in the network.
