Virtualbox For Windows 8 32 Bit

Posted on  by 

Base system is Vista 64-bit running VirtualBox 4.1.2

Virtualbox 32bit free download - Adobe Captivate (32-bit), 32bit FTP, WinRAR (32-bit), and many more programs. Download & install the latest offline installer version of Oracle VM VirtualBox for Windows PC / laptop. It works with both 32-bit & 64-bit versions of Windows XP / Vista / Windows 7 / Windows 8 / Windows 10. Free & Safe Download for Windows PC/laptop – 108 MB. Safety (Virus) Test.

Virtualbox 32 Bit Win 10

The network in the Windows 8 32-bit version works correctly in this setup but Windows 8 64-bit does not. By 'not working' I mean that Windows cannot see the network and its troubleshooter states 'Windows did not detect a properly installed network adapter'

Here is what I did in VirtualBox for the 32-bit VM:
(In Settings | Network | Adapter 1)

  • Attached to: Bridged Adapter
  • Name: Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller
  • Adapter Type: Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop (82540OEM)
  • Promiscuous Mode: Deny
For

This works, and I noticed that the 'adapter type' dropdown is enabled so I could select another brand if so inclined.

For the 64-bit VM:

  • Attached to: Bridged Adapter
  • Name: Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller
  • Adapter Type: PCnet-FAST III (Am79C973)
  • Promiscuous Mode: Deny

'Adapter Type' is fixed to this wrong value, and I suspect that is why Windows 8-64 doesn't think it has any network hardware installed.

Any ideas?
