It now works famously. Now: I have installed Innoteks Virtual PC 5.1 on that system. It is way cool:-) I've got VPC networking like a champ via its Virtual Switch driver in all ways (local, host and external) when connecting through the hardware ethernet interface (Intel) in the Thinkpad. I'm stonewalled trying to achieve the same connectivity using the Prism card. I can achieve TCP/IP networking access using the Prism card from VPC by using its "Shared Networking (NAT)" mode. Unfortunately, that mode, by design, does not support NETBIOS, so I can't access any SAMBA shares, which is absolutely essential. If I select Virtual Switch mode, I get no external connectivity by TCP/IP or NETBIOS but local connectivity (to the host), including NETBIOS, works. It seems (easy for me to say) that this is a Prism driver issue, rather than a VPC issue. Any ideas?
