    created a snapshot of windows 2003 server (physical) using disk2vhd, it opened up fine and everything is there except network connections - there are no network connections. I assigned a network adapter but this didn't change anything, any ideas why this might be? if I go to control panel, network connections there's nothing there

    Hello Cinek12,

    Can you please check the Registry for ;

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Network|Config

    to identify if there is a network adapter configuration there.

    Sincerely,

    Murat Demirkiran

    I just thought of that too - it's detecting new devices, been stuck on that for the past 20 mins

    Hi!

    Add a legacy network adapter and connect it to your ext. virtual network. I've encountered P2V'd 2003 servers that become unresponsive/unusable if they can't connect to the LAN (or find DC or whatever they're looking for).

    If this clears the "hang-up" install IS, add a network adapter, move IP addresses to the new adapter and finally remove the legacy NIC.

    changed boot from disk2vhd server 2003 to server 2003, which allowed for hal upgrade and installation of integration services
