I am using Windows XP Mode w/ Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit. I cannot connect to the Ethernet card in my laptop (neither the LAN or WAN card) to appear as an option to connect to. When I go to the XP Mode settings/Network Adapters, the only options I get are: Not Connected, Shared Networking, or Internal Networking.

Any ideas?

Thanks
-David.

Did you install the WinXP drivers for the NIC while in WinXP Mode? Win7 drivers may not work. Since it's a different OS one does have to install drivers that are not built-into WinXP and if the computer is too new they may not be available for WinXP in which case an option of a USB Wireless Adapter may work.
