I installed win2008 64-bit OS on a vmware guest and also installed the vmware tools. The OS fails to see the network cards. The device manager shows ethernet controller(with yellow sign)indicating that there is no driver. I also tried to uninstall and then reboot the OS. Did not help.<br />
Can anyone suggest as to what I might be missing?<br />
<br />
Thanks.
