I've tried several different things about connecting my XP mode to connect to the net. However, it seems like I can't. My Win 7 had no problem. So what is the problem. Thanks.

Open XP Mode's settings and change the used network adapter 1 to that of your host computer's (Win 7 Pro) adapters. For instance, I have two network adapters on my host computer, a LAN adapter (Realtek) and a WiFi adapter (Intel Wifi Link). Choosing one of these two allows XP Mode to cennect to network.

Thank you and it worked! Wish my Win 7 had 100.mps but being on wifi it's only at 54 mps. But I'm connected and working.
