I just installed WinMe as a guest in XP thinking that I wouldn't have to dual boot & reboot only to use a laser printer which is not compatible w/ win2k or XP. It appears that the printer will work using VMWare since WinME found the hardware & is asking for the drivers.
However, I can't configure VMWare's network to use XP's ICS (I need to go on the net to grab a set of printer drivers).
The current setup in XP (host) uses RASPPPOE to connect to ADSL, and has two network cards for ICS (one from the external adsl modem and the other to the switch for providing internet connections to other workstations in this room).
The guest (WinME) has two virtual ethernet cards which are automatically bridged, and is using the same name for the workgroup.
I'm running out of clues here, can anyone help?
