Fix for networking problems with Windows 7 RC in vmware

If you are having problems getting Windows 7 RC networking to work in vmware, try this little trick:

  • shutdown the vmware guest
  • edit the .vmx and insert/edit the following line:
    ethernet0.virtualDev = “e1000″

That was it, boot up the guest and enjoy your working network again.
