  1. XP VM with Hyper V on Win 10 and network connectivity


    Hi Folks,

    I am running Hyper V on a windows 10 machine. I am trying to run an XP virtual machine within Hyper V. All is running but the network has limited or no connectivity, so i cannot connect to my local network or map the drive to the server.

    I have the Network adapter set to Legacy adapter and have it routed to the default switch.

    I originally had it only routed through legacy adapter with new virtual switch, both give the same result.

    Any ideas on how i can get the network fully working?

    Thanks in Advance

    Mike

    XP VM on Hyper-v in Win 10can't Access my Host C drive and no ethernet connection

    XP VM on Hyper-v in Win 10can't Access my Host C drive and no ethernet connection. I have Internet connection.

    W10 to see a share on an XP machine you'll need to add 'SMB 1.0/CIFS Client' in Windows Features

    1. I already have SMB 1.0/CIFS check marked in Win 10. Still don't get Ethernet

    2. while creating Virtual switch I got following error msg.

    Error : applying virtual switch properties changes failed while adding virtual ethernet connection.

    External Ethernet adapter " Intel (R) 82567V- 2 Gigabit network connection is already bound to Microsoft Virtual switch protocol.

    Any suggestion?

  3. Hyper-V Networking Win Server 2016 on HP DL360 gen 10

    Hi,

    I'm performing initial testing with Hyper-V on an Hp DL360 gen 10 server. The first ethernet port is in use by the main Win 2016 OS installed on the server. I'd like to use one of the 3 available ethernet ports to act as the network/internet connect for
    the Hyper-V Virtual Machine. It will sit on the same VLAN as the main server connection and the Ip address in Hyper-V will be a static IP address.

    I've been walking through the Hyper V instructions to set up a virtual switch using the selected port, but havent' been successful in setting the network in the VM as desired. In Virtual switch manager, i created a new swtich and de-selected the option
    for "Allow management operating system to share the network adapter. However, I've been unable to get a network connection in the VM.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    XP VM with Hyper V on Win 10 and network connectivity

    Issues installing & running Windows XP SP3 in Hyper V

    I'm playing around with Windows XP as a VM in Hyper V for reasons I won't go into. I have a bootable Windows XP SP3 CD I created some time ago. I've hit the following issues.

    1. I can install XP from the CD but Hyper V seems to want access to the bootable CD whenever the VM is restarted. It would be faster to use an ISO file stored on a SSD. I've tried various ways to create a bootable ISO file from my CD but failed. What's the best way of creating an ISO file which will install XP and run under Hyper V?
    2. I installed a virtual switch using a legacy network adapter but cannot connect the VM to the internet. Has anyone done this and what are the key steps? Is it safe to use XP to connect to internet from Hyper V?
    3. I mounted the VM's .vhdx file to copy over some programs to test but this broke the VM's virtual drive configuration on restarting the VM. What's the best way to transfer files to the VM from elsewhere on my PC?
