Fusion 2 network issue

[Jez123]

I have a Macbook running Snow Leopard. I created a Boot Camp dual boot partition with Windows 7. I recently loaded Fusion 2 and imported the Win 7 partition. Problem is that I cannot get the network to work. I have Googled this, but only found one useful page that suggested editing the "partition name".vmx file.This only allows you to use NAT and this fix only worked once. :twisted: Now the network aint workin no more. Anyone know of a fix for this?

Have you tried using the latest version of Fusion - 3? Alternatively, check that you have installed VMware tools within the VM. You shouldn't ever need to manually edit the vmx file as it's all configurable from the main menu. In fact I would say never mess with the vmx file. If still no joy then copy the vmdk file alone somewhere else, and create a new vm from this vmdk.

Thanks a mil. Upgraded to version 3 and it seems to be working fine now. V2 does not actually have Win 7 support.
