[QUOTE="MyPVR, post: 366278, member: 25053"] Update: The WHS was smoothly running, but after a while I encountered difficulties with the network performance: The transfer rate between my desktop and the WHS worked as expected (85 MBit PowerLan), but the transfer rate between host (HTPC) and the guest (WHS) was awfully slow and there occured a huge among of network collisions. The virtual machine was set up with a bridged network adapter. Altering the host network setting was like flogging a dead horse. But then I found a solution: [LIST] [*]added a 2. network adapter to the VM [*]configured it as "Host only" [*]check the routing sequence on the HTPC vmnet1 (host only) -> vmnet0 (bridged) -> LAN and on the WHS vmnet1 -> vmnet0 [/LIST] Now the transfer rate between HTPC and WHS has got a very good performance. ;) Regards, MyPVR [/QUOTE]
