    well through Parallels my old XP OS can connect and my reg OSX can connect to the internet but wen i run Vista it wont connect, everything works perfect but no internet, it tells me drivers or something are missing, yet i follow the steps to fix it and they lead me to things not there...is this a bad install or is the OS just screwed up or do i have some settings wrong?

    1. Connect Parallels Tools CD image (vmtools.iso) to VM. You can find

    Parallels Tools CD image at the /Library/Parallels/Tools folder.



    2. In the Windows Vista Start menu, go to Control Panel -> System -> Device Manager and select

    Network Adapters -> Parallels Network Adapter in the left panel. Double click it.

    3. Choose Driver -> Update Driver... -> Browse for driver software on your computer. Point the path to your CD.

    4. When Windows asks you what driver to use, you should point to:

    Drivers/Network/RTL8029/Win2000.XP.ME.2003 on your virtual CD-ROM.
