Install without recognizing NIC? I think I can be on the right track but need advice.

HI -.

I'm trying to install VMWare ESXi on an older dell desktop computer. More precisely, it is a model of 4600 with a built-in Broadcom 4401 network card. After the installation, I do not receive an IP address on the admin screen. If I choose "Configure management network", I am only presented with the option "are you sure you want to restore your network? & lt; F11 & gt; Yes, zero. '' I chose to put the network and it seems that nothing happens.

I suspect that this card driver was not provided with the installation, but it seems like if it was possible by editing the OEM. TGZ... However, I couldn't find specific instructions on how to do it. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Or have I missed something all together?

Welcome to the VMware community forums.   ESXi will be hired only specific devices.   You can check the list here to see if your NETWORK card is on the list - http://www.vm-help.com/esx/esx3i/Hardware_support.php.   If it is not, and would work with the broadcom driver, you can edit oem.tgz and see if it works.   You would not be able to add a pilot as the drivers that come with ESXi need to be developed to work specifically with the vmkernel (although some ESX (i) drivers are from Linux drivers).

  • Where can I get the right drivers for Satellite Z930 - PT23LA - 01 009?

    A little history: I recently bought a version of Win7 to a Z930 in Auckland from PB Tech shop. I've updated to a clean version of Win8 64-bit. My Win8 seems works ok but I noticed something strange in the Toshiba PC Health Monitor - apparently the Toshiba HDD/SSD Alert is not installed, so I don't understand not his iconic display in the health monitor (but the health monitor think my SSD is in "Good" shape - maybe it's reading the INTELLIGENT of my SSD interface, or maybe it's just saying 'Good' because the integrity monitor is apparently able to operate?)

    I can easily find different versions of the Toshiba HDD/SSD Alert Utility in questionable Web sites - download, but I really prefer to get my Toshiba support drivers. Which leads to my question:

    Where can I get the right drivers for PT23LA-01 009? NZ nor the webarea to Toshiba support have this model in their menus. The closest match seems to be

    http://www.MyToshiba.co.nz/support/computers/Ultrabook/satellite-z930/pt23la-01f00n/download?OS=30

    There is probably not much difference between a PT23LA-01F and a PT23LA-01 P but it is a bit of concern to be download & install the drivers for a chip that is no my model...

    See you soon,.
    Clark

    PS: http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/General-Features-Knowledge-Base/TOSHIBA-HDD-SSD-Alert/ta-p/347120 advise me the area downloads for Toshiba support. He also advises "not all utilities are available for each model and operating system. During the installation of utilities, install the TOSHIBA value added first. "Sigh... so maybe my problem is that I installed the Win8 drivers & utilities order when build my own-building a Win8 pass win7? Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest... but if this is the case are here all other dependencies in these built?

    > Where can I get the right drivers for PT23LA-01 009?

    First series of Toshiba laptops (Australian, European, etc) is very similar to the other
    Your model of laptop Australian Satellite Z930 * PT23LA * series is the same as the European model Satellite Z930 * PT23LE * series.

    That's why the drivers, tools and utilities published for Satellite Z930 * PT23LE * series must be compatible with the Satellite Z930 * PT23LA * series.

    To get all drivers for Satellite Z930 * PT23LE *, you should check this page:
    http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU

    There, you can get all win 8 - upgrade the drivers. Also the HDD/SSD Alert Utility v3.1.64.14

    Go to the Epson website and find the Epson perfection 1250 for
    your version of Windows. I don't know if it exists or not, but if
    for this, you will find it here.

    Whenever you switch to a new version of Windows, you must install
    drivers (software that interfaces between the hardware and)
    Windows) for printers, scanners, video cards, etc., which have been
    written for this new version of Windows.  And also note that you need
    different determinants for a 32-bit version of Windows and a 64-bit
    Version.

    It is the manufacturer of the hardware to write and
    available to download these drivers. Especially if your hardware is
    older, it is quite possible that the manufacturer has decided that it is not
    a value of his time and effort to develop drivers for the hardware that it is
    selling more.
    Check with the manufacturer or on their web site to see if a pilot
    There are. If it, download and install it. If it isn't, you're out
    lucky. Also consult their websites in other countries, if there is
    None; Sometimes you can find the driver you need in this way.

    In the future, before making such an upgrade, make sure you have
    done the appropriate research to find out what drivers do not exist,
    and so what equipment you need to replace if you upgrade.

  • Have the product key, but need to install media for Windows Vista Business

    I have the windows key, but need to download Windows Vista Business. Where can I find? I do to decompress the ISO?

    * original title - I have the windows key, but you need to download Windows Vista Business. Where can I find? I do to decompress the ISO? *

    Hello

    There is no free and legal Vista download

    Here are the different ways to reinstall vista:

    Contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

    you would normally press F10 or F11 or Alt + F10, 0 at startup to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

    Ask them of the exact key sequence

    or borrow a microsoft dvd vista

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

    Save all data, because it will be lost, do the above

    I have a problem with my Portege M200.

  • I can connect to the local network, but not to the internet

    Why in an internet connection, I can connect to the Local network, but not to the Internet.
    I have valid IP address and configuration is good.

    I recommend you read some threads here in the forum about similar issues.
    If this problem occurs using the WiFi network, then check if you can use the connection to the local network.
    Using the WiFi network, you must check if the common WLan parameters are favourable;
    Check if the encryption key is right; turn off filtering by mac address, check the TCP/IP protocol settings if it has been set to automatic, disable the firewall settings, rest you WLan router, check if you connected to the right SSID.

    Hey everyone, I need help with this one:

    I have a dual boot Win7 (x 64) / XP (x 86) on my laptop, but I can't find the right poster drivers for compatible video controller VGA on XP.

    Anyone know where I can find them?

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    As far as I know the Satellite A660 laptop - 12 p belongs to the PSAW3E series and it was equipped with the chip to display NVIDIA GeForce GT330M.

    You can try to check the drivers provided by pages:
    -laptopvideo2go.com
    -omegadrivers.net

    But in both cases, the use if these drivers are at your own risk since these drivers don t contain overheating protection!
