Purchased the New MacBook last Thursday. It is by far the best laptop that I have purchased from Apple so this post is not to bash Apple, yet.

When I run Vista under Bootcamp, I do not have any issues connecting to the Internet.

When I run Vista under VMWare Fusion 2.0, I cannot connect to the Internet. It keeps prompting me to load the driver for the ethernet controller. I have tried inserting the CD from Apple to load the driver with no luck and since I cannot connect to the Internet, I cannot find a driver that way either.

Unfortunately, I run Vista side by side with my Mac OS everyday all day due to half the programs only available in Windows via Web Based Applications. With out the connection to the Internet, I am dead in the water in using this machine.

Has anyone else encountered this or heard about it and know of a solution. Any help is always appreciated. Thanks in advance.
