Virtualbox Win 2000 network adaptor driver

Hello,
Looking for some advice. I got a new job, and was able to convince them to let me use a Mac versus the typical corporate dell setup. So i got a spiffy new 13" MBP 2.4Ghz.
So everything is working fine, but I need to run a business application that runs on windows only. Since it's an information database, I need to access it via a virtual Windows pane, instead of going with Bootcamp, which I have running with no issues on my personal MBP. So we opted to use Virtualbox since it's a free solution. The IT guy installed VB along with Windows 2000 since they have licenses lying around, but they couldn't get the network card driver working.
My question to the community here, running the same thing, is what network driver should be used for VirtualBox with Windows 2000 as the guest OS?
The IT guy is a part time contractor so he's not doing alot of effort in finding out.
I appreciate any suggestions and pointers.
thanks,
Ken

Okay, so the oracle boys directed me back to the virtualbox page, since they don't have a real tech support to call. But I was able to locate an answer from one their forum moderators.
For anyone that may come across the same issue, here's what you do.
having the guest OS (windows 2000) shutdown, go into VB Settings, then Network, and Select "NAT" under the 'attached to:' drop down box. And the the Adaptor Type (driver) under Advanced should be kept as PCnet-FAST III.
thanks,
ken

WIN 2000 "No Bootable Drive Error" on new K7N2 Delta

Installed new MSI K7N2 MB and AMD Athlon XP 2500+ chip on Saturday and get to WIN 2000 boot and then blue screen error "can not find bootable drive?".
My friend tried booting from his and my WIN 2000 CD to no avail. Both drives show up on startup. Checked cables and tried swopping to no avail.
Any help would be apprreciated. I have tried the stickies to no avail.
Set up:
Maxtor 20 g master (OS System installed)
Maxtor 80 g slave for video editing
HP CD RW
NEC DVD RW
AGP display Video Card
IEEE firewire PCI
FDD
AMD Athlon 2500+ XP (333 FSB)
MSI K7N2 Delta MB
Antec 300 w mini-tower case ( bought off shelf at store) (do not have the specs on AMPS as I am at work)
Could it be the PSU?
I know Wonk or someone can offer me their guidance please. The Mrs. is PO'd.

I got that same error today, when I was trying to add a new boot drive with fresh W2K. I'm going to rant for a while, but you can skip it if you're not using an external drive and you've tested your internal drive ATA (round or ribbon) cables. (note that they can be v-e-r-y bad even if they look OK). I'll explain how these things relate to "No boot drive", but you'll have to bear with me, I'm still venting and trying to get over how stinking aggravating, time-consuming, AND expensive these components can be and still the manufacturers won't take responsibility for problems. Sony orphaned this one while it was still on the shelves at office supply stores.
Anyway, I'm such a fool --I know real well that my SONY CRX2100U USB external CDRW is a pig, but I always forget about that because it works pretty well with my MSI board and W2K *once everything is installed*. But it dies suddenly if I run the W2K setup from it (seems liek the USB20 driver gets stepped on or something. With other machines, like a Toshiba laptop, I have to disconnect it to boot at all. It gets in the way of the boot, somehow. it seems to have some issues with USB 2.0 compliance. So if you're working off an external hard drive, you might want to consider that it can be less than well-behaved at boot time.
What's this got to do with "no bootable drive"? I don't know, really. JUst that Win2K setup blows its brains out and suddenly stops knowing about the USB 2.0 drive, and a Toshiba laptop can't boot with a Sony USB 2.0 drive connected to it.
One other problem it might be: The ATA cable MSI puts in the motherboard boxes is either a good one or a really awful one. The awful ones are truly awful--I suspect that they attract and amplify electromagnetic radiation from sun spots or something...something makes the system go NUTS reporting disk errors and such. My K7N2 Delta ILSR came with the red plastic round cable, it is good as gold. My K7N2 Delta-L came with a wire-mesh wrapped 80-conductor cable, and I never saw anything more evil than it was, when brand new on a new system. It *looked* fine, good as new, but acted like it was shorting out the drives. Fuh, as much as I like to get free cables, I'll never use that one again. I dug up a twisted old ATA 80 c0nductor (blue-terminated) cable out of an old box and put it in, in place of the wire-mesh round cable, and the system came back to life immediately.
You pro'lly otter get a known good-quality 80 conductor cable for the internal drives.
So hope this helps.

Network Adaptor Driver

I just had a Toshiba Satellite L656-S5058 fail and I replaced the hard disk with one from a Satellite M305-S4907. Most everything works but there's no network adapter driver available to install. I downloaded three different driver scanner programs (from another machine), ran them, and they all failed for one reason or another when I ran them. Can anyone advise me on how to get this machine on line?Thanks in advance...

Satellite L655-S5058
Best to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. If you failed to burn recovery discs, you can obtain them from Toshiba. Scroll down to Get Recovery Media here .
For instructions, see the section Restoring from recovery DVDs/media, which begins on p. 71 of the User's Guide.

Hp 9800 on win 7 network can't find driver on win xp

I have an HP9800 connected on a Win 7 network. I can see it from a Win XP machine (add new printer / networked) but when trying to install I'm asked for drivers from H:\WDM (H is the optical drive on the XP machine)
I tried redirecting to both the installation CD and the XP driver folder on the CD but it tells me there is no appropriate driver. available.
Any ideas?

"Win 2000 Driver for Lab-PC+"

Trying to use a Lab-PC+ card with LabVIEW 6i on
Win 2000 system

Greetings,
The most recent version of NI-DAQ to support the Lab-PC+ is 6.9.3. It is available for download from the following location:
NI-DAQ Version 6.9.3 for Windows 2000/95/98/ME/NT/XP
Furthermore, since the Lab-PC+ is not a plug and play device, the installation procedure is a bit different than most other boards. Below is a link to the installation procedure for the Lab-PC+:

Good luck with your application.

MSI Media Center and WIN 2000

The MSI Media Center does NOT work with Windows 2000! Will there be a Version that does work anytime soon?

Hi Assaf,
This gets to be more of a mystery!

No, there is no sign any such a device in the boot up information, which is a bit strange isn't it? It lists my other stuff o.k. - see below.
What other PCI cards do you have?
I have the following installed:
Network Adaptor 1: Realtek RTL8139(A)-based PCI Fast Ethernet Adaptor. The driver for this must be included in Win 2000 as I didn't have to install anything for it.
Network Adaptor 2: BT Speedway ISDN PCI Card Rev. A (Win 2000). I had to install the driver for this from the supplied CD.
Video Adaptor: NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 M64/M64 PRO. I installed the latest unified driver from NVIDIA (Version: 44.03
Release Date: May 14, 2003).
What puzzles me most is that when I rebuilt the system I started out with just the video card installed and no other adaptors (the card was using the Microsoft supplied driver) and there was no sign of the sound system then. So, unless there is something fundamentally wrong with the motherboard surely the sound should have been detected?
Cheers and thanks for your help.

Win 2000 doesn't show netware printers

I installed:
A single Novell 5.0 Server with sp6a
A Win 2000 PC with Novell client 4.92sp2 IP and IPX
with some standard software as MS Office 2000, Adobe Acrobat Reader,
Norman Antivirus, Java 1.5 and son more.
Using the Windows printer wizard I choose "network printers"
and "search for" printers. Windows shows only "Microsoft windows
Printers" but no Novell Network and no Novell printer / queue.
Using Network Neighborhood and going to NDS with the Printer icon Windows
tells me, that I have to install this printer. Then it says, the printer
coulnt be installed or isn't valid.
From my WinXP prof. Notebook I have no problem to acces the Novell Printer.
What's wrong?

The problem is solved.
A software called "NET SUPPORT SCHOLL 7.01" from PCI - Software hooks a
part of the printer services. A senseless (!!!) DLL causes the problem.
See the email following (from PCI) for a workaround. I had to restart the
PC to for the changes to take effect.
Thanks for your help!
dear H. Wybranietz
Thank you for contacting NetSupport Technical concerning Printing Issue on
Novell via NetSupport School 7.01. This is not a problem usually found in
NetSupport School and is usually only reported regarding NetSupport
Manager, which includes a Print Capture feature.
The problem you are experiencing relates to NetSupport attempting to Hook
into the Print Driver in order to do this at start up we have to restart
the Print Spooler service at startup. After reading through your problem it
looks like the spooler service is not restarting.
Therefore, could you please remove the INJLIB.DLL file from the machine -
this will not cause any problems and will stop NetSupport from hooking into
the Printer driver. Which means you will not have to keep restarting the
Print Spooler service.
The file INJLIB.dll is a NSM file but is included in NSS, removing this
file from the system will not remove any functionality from NSS. Please
follow the steps below:
1) Go into C:\Program Files\NetSupport School
2) Find a file called injlib.dll
3) Rename this file to injlib.old
4) Restart the Print Spooler service
5) Restart the Client32 service

SQLSERVER7 connection problem on WIN 2000

Hello-
Any help at all on this problem would be greatly appreciated. I'm running MSSqlServer 7.0 Desktop Version (with service pack 3) on Win 2000 and I get the follwing error when trying to connect to the db:
[DataDirect][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Error establishing socket. Connection refused: connect
The DataDirect driver is loading fine. My code is fine (in fact DataDirect has their own code I can use to test their driver and I get this same exception).
Any ideas? Is there a JDBC issue with the desktop version of SqlServer7 or is this a Win 2000 issue?
Thanks ahead of time!
John

SQL Server can be configured to use named pipes, TCP/IP and a number of other protocols. Probably your server does not enable TCP/IP (all type 4 JDBC drivers for SQL Server use TCP/IP, I know this since I'm developing one -- jTDS, http://jtds.sourceforge.net).
You can configure SQL Server to use TCP/IP using the SQL Server Network Utility. It's quite intuitive, you'll see.
And, by the way, you can give jTDS a try. :o)

Network Controller driver for T42p not working

We have a T42p (type 2373-HTU) that had a new copy of WinXP Pro installed on it, wired network is working but wireless is NOT working.
In Device Manager, the network adaptor is showing up as working and it is (Intel PRO/1000 MT Mobile Connection) working fine on a wired connection. The Bluetooth works when you Fn-F5 it on. My problem is that the Network Controller has the infamous yellow question mark on it and I have been through every single driver on the Lenova site for this particular laptop (2373-HTU) and none of them work. I did follow the install instructions and still have the same problem. I assume this is why the wireless networking is not working. I do have an icon in Control Panel for Wireless Network setup wizard. There is no off/on switch for wireless on this model. I have been in the BIOS and there is no way to turn wireless off/on in there either. As far as I know ... this particular model does have a wireless card installed.

Welcome to the forum! These were the original specs of your T42p:
P M 745, 1GB RAM, 60GB 7200rpm HDD, 15 UXGA(1600x1200) TFT LCD, 128MB ATI FireGL T2, CD-RW/DVD-R Multi-Burner(slim), Intel 802.11b wireless, Bluetooth/Modem, 1Gb Ether, UltraNav, Sec Chip, 9 cell Li-Ion Batt, WinXP Pro
The driver, presuming you're running XP:
http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/1rwc89ww.exe
After downloading and extracting the driver, you must go into C>Drivers>Win>Wlanint and run the setup file from there.
Quite a few users have reported issues with Intel 2100B card under XP SP3. You may want to consider getting a newer card, they are quite inexpensive nowadays.
Good luck and keep us posted.

MS-6367 USB and Win 2000 drivers

Hi, can someone point me in the right direction here.
I have an NEC Powermate XL4 which has an MS-6367 (MSI) NOVA motherboard. I bought it with Win XP Home and the original NEC CD which contains XP drivers.
I recently installed Windows 2000 Professional and loaded the nforce drivers from the Nvidia website which seems to have installed OK. I'm having problems with a USB2 pci card as the external hard drive attached to it seems to be losing power (although it has an external power source) when transferring large files. It seems to work ok on the inbuilt USB1 ports though.
I'm wondering if there is a problem with USB in general on this PC, as it seems to be using standard Win 2000 USB drivers -I can't seem to locate Win 2000 drivers for this motherboard. I'm a bit confused with the USB information in device manager. I have the following listed:
Standard OpenHCD PCI to USB Host Controller
Standard OpenHCD PCI to USB Host Controller
USB 2.0 Root Hub
USB Root Hub
USB Root Hub
USB Root Hub
USB Root Hub
VIA PCI to USB Enhanced Host Controller
VIA USB Universal Host Controller
VIA USB Universal Host Controller
This is how it looks with 4 inbuilt USB ports and the PCI Card which has 3 external and 1 internal USB2 ports (an Innovision DM8007). Does this look correct?
Thanks
Dan

Thanks,
Sorry, I meant to say is that I could not find any Win 2000 drivers for the motherboard and that the Nvidia drivers were all I could find and install which seem to only relate to the video, sound and onboard network controller.
The USB card does come with drivers, but I was thinking that there maybe something wrong with the way the motherboard is operating and that maybe I'm missing specific Win2k drivers for this particular motherboard.
I'm about to test a newer driver for the PCI card to see if that sorts it out.
Thanks
Dan

9i installation problem on a Win 2000 P4 PC

Hi,
Although I am new to Oracle, with the help of documentation I successfully managed to install it on a Window 2000 PC without any major problems except for the one described below.
The problem is this:
When the PC was part of a campus domain (e.g., claflin.edu) I got "end-of-file on communication channel" and "internal error. hostdef extension doesn't exist" errors repeatedly many times during installation but I didn't get any when the PC was taken off the network and added to a workgroup.
Is there something I need to do to make it work on a network? Has anyone seen this same behavior on Win 2000 or is it something unique in my case?
By the way, I am also running the personal web server (PWS) in the same PC.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Kuha M.

Hi Eric,
Ther should not be any problem in stalling NWDS SP9. Your case the problem may be
1)Insufficient Disk Space
2)Outdated vesrion of JDK
3) you might not have been downloded full fledged NWDS SP9 installer.
4)May be while installing NWDS it is not able to locate JDK in Directory.
if you check all these, i hope it will work!!!.
