Hi

I recently downloaded virtual pc 2007 to get some knowledge on active directory and windows server 2003 as I am trying to get a job in a technical support and most jobs require knowledge of these systems.
I have windows vista home premium on my host machine, I have created a virtual machine with windows server 2003 that works fine connects to the internet. I have set up the DNS and active directory.
I have another virtual machine xp professional which I am going to add to the domain of my which my server 2003 is hosting. But the xp VM doesnt seem to connect to the internet, the icon in the bottom left corner doesnt seem to do anything at all. I have added my wireless apdater from the settings of the virtual machine, my host wireless adapter has the virtual services added to it. But still it doesn't want to connect.

Here are my IP settings.

The settings on my host machine are
ip address 192.168.1.10
subnet 255.255.255.0
default gateway 192.168.1.1
DNS 192.168.1.1

my host server 2003 settings
ip address 192.168.1.12
subnet 255.255.255.0
default gateway 192.168.1.1
DNS 192.168.1.1

xp pro settings
ip address 192.168.1.13
subnet 255.255.255.0
default gateway 192.168.1.1
DNS 192.168.1.1

but the xp machine doesnt seem to do anything internet wise.

Could someone please help me
