Having just installed VMWare 6 onto Vista Ultimate and find that my LAN
connection takes a lot longer to connect at boot-up (probably due to the virtual connections from VMWare). I find that AVG and GMail Notifier both fail because they attempt to connect before the LAN connection is live meaning I have to manually update AVG and I have to tell GMail to check for mail. Is there a way to force both AVG and GMail to wait a specified time before attempting to connect at bootup? thanks |

You might try disabling the DHCP server VMWare installs with your virtual network. You'd have to use bridged networking (vmnet0) and use your nomal DHCP server (usuall in your router). You can also create an isolated network on vmnet8 and manually set your IP address, but this wouldn't allow external access. Just a thought... -- PurdueEngr |
