Internet connection problem on Windows 2000 VM
Hi,
I'm having a really frustrating problem when trying to connect to the internet on my Windows 2000 Professional virtual machine running inside of VMware Workstation Pro 12.5.2 on a Windows 10 host.
I downloaded the virtual machine from the internet (it already had the accessibility software I need) and extracted the files to C:\Users\Gypside\Documents\Virtual Machines. I then opened the virtual machine with VMware, press Control + B to power it on and selected "I copied it" when the dialogue appeared. From then on, I was unable to connect to the internet, even after trying multiple fixes including manually setting the MAC address and restarting the network adaptor. The weirdest part is that the icon in the taskbar says I'm connected, but internet explorer keeps saying "Cannot find server".
Any help will be highly appreciated.
