Thanks
I found the driver, but at net initialize it starts loading the driver and
then just hangs there.
Any ideas?

Why didn't George Washington's father punish him for chopping down the
Cherry Tree?
George still had the ax.

Hi,
Virtual PC (just like all virtualisation products) will present
emulated/virtualised hardware to the guest OS. You do not load the driver
for the physical hardware. Instead load the driver for the appropriate
emulated hardware (which I believe is some Intel NIC).
A quick google turned up:

That should probably get the emulated NIC working for you
Cheers
Ken
