In win 2003 server, it tried to install a driver, but had no valid MAC in that case. In XP it simply said it had no driver for that device. At least that's what I got when I installed XP in kvm a couple of months ago (using the 0.10.x based kvm). Unless newer SP install discs for XP happen to include a driver, then I have no idea why there would be a difference. If you are installing XP, then the 8139 and ne2k should both be supported, while the e1000 probably isn't (gigabit on desktop machines probably wasn't very common when XP came out). -- Len Sorensen
