Available adapters for Windows network clients

We are at the last vSphere generates for the host and vCenter. We are rebuilding our models of windows. I wanted to get a better idea on which network cards available to use (http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1001805). Our old models have been set to flexible.

These models will be for all variants of Windows 2003 and Windows 2008 (32-bit, 64-bit, R2, etc..)

I am trying to decide if I should choose VMXNET2 or VMXNET3 for my models. I don't want to choose one that proliferates and I regret more late or have to change.

(1) any concerns going forward with one of these.

(2) comparing the 2, what are the benefits of each (VMXNET2 and VMXNET3)

(3) by comparing the 2, what are the possible disadvantages foreach (VMXNET2 and VMXNET3)

Vmxnet3 is the latest and greatest drivers. Best performance. The VMXNET3 downside is that currently you cannot enable Fault Tolerance on a virtual machine with this type of network card.

    Hi D33Viilz,

    I found a post on the Games for Windows Live site that has addressed your question.  Here are the steps and the link to the original post:

    If you're running Vista, you can not uninstall all .NET Framework before 3.0.

    If you haven't already, you will need to download 3.5 SP 1 here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=AB99342F-5D1A-413D-8319-81DA479AB0D7&displaylang=en

    If you are running Windows 7, it should have the most recent of the .NET Framework.

    Also, I would say that you are using the tool Mod proposed (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301) to completely remove Microsoft Games for Windows LIVE and LIVE Redistributable.

    When you have finished using the cleanup utility, check that it has been removed through programs and features.

    Restart your PC, and then re-download the newest Client of Games for Windows LIVE here: go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9640147

  • OS for vCenter. Should I for windows server client access licenses?

    Hello

    I just buy more Essentials and installing vCenter. A Microsoft guy told me except the license server should I buy Windows client access licenses to the server also. To me, this seems odd. Is this true? Is there a document indicating I need / not need client access licenses?

    Thanks in advance!

    Long story short: you need a CAL for each device / user that will access the VirtualCenter machine (Windows server).

    Quote: Each user or device that accesses or uses the Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2 server software requires the purchase of a license for access to Client in Windows Server 2008 (Windows Server CAL)

    Add as follows: (assuming you are installing vCenter on W2008) http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/us/client-licensing.aspx

    If you already Win servers in your environment and your users / devices already have win client access licenses server, you can use the existing licenses to stay in the EULA. Talk to your MS guy if that's the case.

  • Slow printing of http for windows network ports 7

    Windows 7 professional 64-bit, 16 GB of ram, processor 3.4 mhz.

    I read many many posts on this subject.  HOWEVER, I print directly on printers.  HTTP via Cups.  I can load my old XP machine in a virtual machine on windows machine 7 and it prints immediately!  Have already disabled items with netsh int tcp set global chimney = disabled (RSS autotuninglevel thus), bidirectional, coil, firewall, anti-virus, and still the problem persists.

    Since it prints fast the same machine with XP and all other users on the network who are still using XP printed correctly.  I know this is Windows 7.  My printer ports are listed as internet ports. (ie: http://myserver:631/imprimantes/printername))  The system is slow if it prints a Ricoh digital, laser, a laser Epson brother or printers matrix okidata.  So I doubt that it is a driver problem.  Hope I gave enough information.  See you soon

    The answer is:

    Control Panel/internet options/connections/lan settings uncheck automatically detect settings

  • Request concerning the sequence of updates for the Windows Update client in 2015

    I posted a query similar to this on a Microsoft Technet forum, but I have not yet received a response to the specific question that I asked.  I'm trying so this forum.

    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1, but I did not intend to accept the free update of Windows 10.  I don't use automatic updates.  I use Windows Update manually and select the updates to install, even for these updates identified as Important.

    Since April 2015, there was a sequence of updates for the client Windows Update on Windows 7 (Windows 8).  I have the Windows 7 of those below list:

    KB2990214 (April 2015)

    KB3050265 (June 2015)

    KB3065987 (July 2015)

    KB3075851 (August 2015)

    KB3083324 (September 2015)

    KB3083710 (October 2015)

    KB3102810 (November 2015)

    KB3112343 (December 2015)

    (This list is probably less intimidating than it looks because the replaced October update Update September, which replaced the August update, which replaced the July update, which replaced the June updated.  "There are therefore basically just 4 updates.)

    The big question is, given that Windows 7 is available for several years, why, all of a sudden, there was this sequence of updates for the Windows Update client?  Because these updates began to occur at the time when the offer of a free upgrade to Windows 10 was announced, I could be forgiven for thinking that all of these updates are really directed towards the relaxation of the upgrade to Windows 10 via Windows Update, and that there is little or no advantage to systems that are not upgrading.  I am mistaken in this belief?  If not, precisely those who will benefit from my system, even if it is not upgraded to Windows 10?

    The updates that I currently installed, depending on the installed updates, are KB2990214 (April 2015), KB3075851 (August 2015), KB3083324 (September 2015) and KB3083710 (October 2015).

    In my view, there was a lack of transparency in the descriptions of these updates in the KB articles.  And, in one or two cases, information on the importance of an update in the article and in Windows Update has been inconsistent.  It would have been much clearer if each KB article stated for NOT upgrading to Windows 10 systems, if the update to the Windows Update client is important, as an option or completely irrelevant.

  • 10.1.1 on Windows 7 clients deployment error

    I have a 10.1.0 existing msi that has been installed by using policy group to all client computers in my organization.

    Today, I downloaded the 10.1.1 msp, created an administrative installation point and patched msi file.

    This action deploys well for XP machines, but not for Windows 7 clients. the following is reported in the application logs:

    I tried to recreate the AIP from scratch, without success.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    Could you please confirm if the issue is only seen on Win7 64-bit systems.

    If Yes, take a look at the below mentioned the post on the forum for the solution to your problem. It looks like a case of incorrect commands used to create the AIP deployed.
