It'll go down in history to describe what Intel did to many network controllers that used to be supported by a very good company. Killer is the most apropo name that Intel could have acquired. And just to be even more clear, Intel didn't design motherboards for many of the network controllers that Intel immediately ended support for. Intel didn't contribute Jack **bleep**te to Qualcomm or Rivet. When in fact, the company Rivet Networking, aka, Bigfoot Networking, designed the software and who Intel bought out.
However, there is a workaround to force it to work in an unsupported mode using Vista drivers - see here.David_G_Intel and sounds like with the use of the word "our" when referring to Intel that you're giving a false impression to the community that Intel designed the software for the Killer E2400 GB Ethernet adapter. According to Microsoft, you cannot use the legacy adapter mode in Windows Server 2003 64-bit (this likely applies to Windows XP 64-bit as well). The legacy network adapter emulates a physical network adapter, multiport DEC 21140 10/100TX 100 MB. For instructions, see Install a Guest Operating System.Ī legacy network adapter works without installing a virtual machine driver.
On all other supported operating systems, install integration services in the guest operating system to install the virtual machine driver. This driver is included with some newer versions of Windows. There are two different Hyper-V network adapters as documented here:Ī network adapter requires a virtual machine driver in order to work, but offers better performance. What you need is a driver for the Hyper-V network adapter you have chosen. In a VM the hypervisor emulates a virtual network adapter.
In a VM the guest has no access to the real hardware so cannot use for drivers for your physical hardware. Neither of the above is relevant when running in a Hyper-V VM.The card is an AR8161 chip, so you can use ordinary Atheros drivers for it, the following page details how: Thankfully, as SuperUsers, we don't care about official support. XP drivers for your card apparently aren't supplied by the manufacturer so there is no "officially supported" method to use it under XP.
