XPS 8700 - need additional network card for VMware Workstation

Hello -
I'm wanting to add either a dual or quad network card to my XPS 8700 so I can provide physical interfaces for some VMware Workstaion.  Is there a specific band or model that is compatible..?
I've tried installing a spare Intel E1G42ET (dual port) card I had laying around, but the OS never saw it even with the drivers from Intel's website loaded up.
Any suggestions..?  Thanks,

No - but it's just another card to the BIOS. Also, there's already a Wireless NIC and an Ethernet NIC in there.  I appreciate the suggestion - I can test it,. but suspect the issue will remain the same.
Thanks,

  • Do i need a network card to install and run a local java web server

    Friends,
    Do i need a network card in my computer to install and run a local Java Web Server or any Web Server.

    network cards are only for connecting equipment together... you can set up a webserver without any more equipment than you have already! Indeed Tomcat... BUT you would be better off with apache for production stuff. It depends what you need to serve... if its mainly static pages (i guess it probably isn't) then apache will be enough by itself; but if you need to serve dynamic pages (JSP, Servlet blah blah) then you will need tomcat. Tomcat has it's own webserver and its perfectly ok for testing or low-load stuff, but you can integrate with Apache (a moderately compex task, but do-able, see tomcat-user forum off of apache site) for greater stability, and you don't have to show the port in the URL... Don't set up a webserver on any pc that contains stuff you don't want hacked into... it becomes very succeptible when the service is up...

    how to use itunes gift card to buy apps on ipad 2? Do I need a credit card for it?

    I'm sorry, but there is nothing that I can do to help you with this situation. I don't know why, but many people have problems when they try to buy gems in the Clash of Clans game. Personally, I wouldn't touch the game with a ten foot pole, but that's just my opinion.
    You will have to contact iTunes Store Support and ask for their help. You can email them from here.

    Either add a credit card or maybe another payment method will work
    or
    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

  • I need a sim card for my iPhone 5 from sprint but they won't give me one,I really need one

    I need a sim card for my iPhone 5,I already talked to a sprint representing they said they won't give me one and I wonder if apple would,I really need one

    Apple does not give out sims - only wireless carriers do.
    Go to a different Sprint location and ask for a sim. If you
    have an active account, they have to give you a sim. If you
    do not have an active account, what do you want the sim for?

    I appreciate the replies about needing to setup a credit card for agreeing to pay for purchases and letting someone else be the Family Organizer.  The purpose of my question is to know if there is a way around apples requirement to have a valid payment method on file...we have money in our apple account (use iTunes gift cards) and I do not want to store my CC info at apple.  It seems like very odd that money in your account would not be enough to setup Family Sharing.
    Very frustrating and just about ready to get rid of all the 15 apple products we currently have.
    Khuerter,
    Having a credit card when you set up as Family Organizer is a legal requirement to prove that you are taking financial responsibility for the others on the account.  As Gail noted, there is not a way around that.
    Once the account is set up, the Family Organizer can remove the credit card and replace it by a debit card.

  • To run Mac OS X you need a host on which VMware Workstation supports Intel VT-x or AMD-V.

    To run Mac OS X you need a host on which VMware Workstation supports Intel VT-x or AMD-V. ?

    VMWare ESXi should support Lion and Mountain Lion, both in terms of it having been done and beeing allowed by Apple's license.
    Note: Apple's license only allows hosting two virtual OS X machines on a single host.
    In addition to ESXi, there is also Parallels Server for Mac Bare Metal Edition. See http://www.parallels.com/uk/products/server/mac/baremetal/technical-resources/ I merely mention it for completeness, I would stick to ESXi since it is 'free'.
    You could consider running OS X as the host operating system and Windows as a guest VM using VirtualBox. VirtualBox can be configured to start automatically and invisibly on the Mac host. You could then use Microsoft RDP to connect to the running VM. Its services like SQL Server would of course be running and accessible as normal.

    I can't find which carrier to use on my refurbished I phone 3 G.  The screen says I need a sim card and has the message IMEI 01 181100 937 9394.  Also ICCID unknown.

    They are free at Corporate Verizon stores; retailers usually charge for them.  You also can call Customer Service and have them send you one.

  • Teamed network cards for domain controllers?

    can someone help me to resolve a debate we have: my colleage states that domain controllers (in our case Win2003SP2) should "not" have their network cards teamed for high availability (via HP's NIC teaming software).? I've not heard of this and cannot Bing/Google anything like this. I'm under the impression that a domain controller "should" have it's gigabit NICs teamed to make sure that directory services are highly available.
    any information on this would be great. thanks...Peter A. Berger Jr.

    Fault Tolerance and Network Teaming
                    Anyone who has called Microsoft for help with a networking problem has likely heard the question: "Are you using network teaming?" I have often heard this referred to by Microsoft's customers as a "quick out" or an excuse that Microsoft was looking to pass the responsibility on to someone else. As someone that has been on both ends of the phone, and at the highest escalation point within Microsoft's Network queues I can tell you that it is a question born of wisdom and tempered with experience. While working the phones at Microsoft, supporting the largest and most critical systems in the US it was rare to ever get a call about the same problem more than once. Even more rare was for everyone on our group to get the same calls, and have the same experiences. I recall it happening when we fought the blaster worm, and when Microsoft's "Scalable Networking Pack" was released with 2003 SP2. These were bad, but a few months went by and except for a few straggles the phone calls stopped, the world got wise to the issue and the problem was resolved. I was amazed though to experience 1-3 calls a week with network issues CAUSED by network teaming. I could not help but be blown away by the irony of a program meant to avoid network failure so often causing it. I talked to colleagues, (of which I have found no better single source in the industry than at Microsoft), and found that even the old timers having more than 15 years with the company had the same stories of problems caused by networking teaming as we are constantly experiencing today. I am amazed that an industry as wise and agile as the computer industry has been (and is), has stuck with such a poor technology. I always asked my customers as the called with problems, usually critical ones, "What is teaming these network cards getting you". Almost unanimously the answer would come fault tolerance, to which I would reply rhetorically "How often do you NICs or Switches fail and how often has teaming caused network failure?" In my opinion, it is unforgivable for an application to constantly cause the problem that it is written to avoid. It should cause pause and reflection as to whether the technology is well suited for its function, whether it is just written poorly or if all of its implementations have similar problems. Technology today is beyond network teaming. There are far better methods of providing fault tolerance with manual and automatic failover. Most application writers have taken into consideration fault tolerance at the service level superseding anything that network teaming offers, so that network teaming should be a dead technology, because it is killing us.
                    Finally, if you are considering using network teaming, or have had reason to reconsider its use, maybe these questions will help your assessment:
                    What is my goal with using network teaming?
                    Can I gain Availability through use of a more capable NIC card?
                    How often have my NIC cards failed?
                    When NIC cards have failed were they the only failure, or was it in conjunction with a Motherboard or other failure causing the service to be unavailable?
                    What are my needs for uptime for these services?
                    Would a manual failover (the simplest of options) be viable for this service?
                    What options for automatic failover do I have (since most applications can have multiple providers through configuration)?
                    One other note to add. While working on the phones at Microsoft, and later as a consultant to large and federal organizations, I found one thing that seemed to be true most of the time. When a problem occurred, it was rarely the OS itself, but something unnatural to its processes. Simplicity and minimalism is really one of the keys to a healthy server and environment. Often it is necessary to introduce other applications and services, but I do not think near as often as we do.
    Note: MSFT does not support network teaming, because they do not own the software that provides it. In certain instances though, like with OCS, they flat out will not support OCS if teaming is enabled on the server.
    Note2: I realize my comments above are very general, and so I want to apply these to this exact question. When I consider AD and how to make it fault tolerant, I cannot help but realize that the protocols, clients and services that make up Directory Services, are beautifully fault tolerant. In most cases, the loss of any one DC would not greatly affect the user's ability to authenticate to a computer or service within the domain. Even more, Directory services is inherently so fault tolerant that it can still function with the loss of a major part of the servers that make it up.

  • Network Card for PowerBook G3

    Hello everyone,
    I have an older laptop and I have been told that I can only access the Internet with dialup because the computer does not have a network card.
    Is there one available for the PowerBook G3. Better yet, can I get a wireless card?
    Thank you very much

    Macintosh PowerBook G3   Mac OS 8.6 or Earlier   Mac OS 8.5.1

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    The Powerbook G3 has a built-in ethernet port. It is the same as a "network card" 10-base-T. It is slightly wider than the telephone cable though looks like a phone jack.
    What age Powerbook G3 do you have? Some have a built-in port to insert an older style airport card (not the Airport Extreme), while others require using a PCMCIA WiFi card such as the Lucent Orinico Gold. See this article to identify your Powerbook G3:
