Failed to open VPC Network driver Vista Enterprise RTM

Hello,

I have just upgraded to Vista Enterprise RTM and now when I try to open WM 5.0 device emulater (Selecting connect) I get the message below. Is there a fix out yet I did install the windows mobile device center, as well as the Virtual Machine Network Driver for Microsoft Device Emulator (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx FamilyID=dc8332d6-565f-4a57-be8c-1d4718d3af65&displaylang=en) but it didn't seem to help. Thanks in advance.\

    Did you install the VPC Net driver with elevated priviledges. Please note that while installing the driver, you need to be running on elevated priviledges and you can come back later on.

    I would recommend you to uninstall the VPC Net driver and re-install it as said above.

    -Thanks,

    Mohit,

    I have uninstalled the VPC net driver. Rebooted and reinstalled as the administrator. If I look at the properties on the VPC the driver provider, driver date and driver version are all blank. Any other suggestions

    Ok, can you please uninstall the VM Net Driver and install the Virtual PC 2007 software instead Then check Control Panel a NetworkaProperties to see if the driver is there and then try out your scenarios.

    Do let us know if this helps solve your problem.

    Thanks,
    Ravindra
