Virtual PC 2007 does not connect to internet

[ColinG]

Hi,

I have installed Vista Office - Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 but I am unable to
connect to the internet. The laptop I use is fine and I have VPC for XP
Office 2007 which works fine.

I have noticed that when performing the following:

right click on Local Area Connection
click properties
click Client for Microsoft Networks
click Properties
Name service provider is blank
select Windows Locator
click OK
click Close

repeat the above and name service provider is blank again. Any assistance
would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Colin

There is a newsgroup devoted to VPC
microsoft.public.virtualpc

but I don't get the reference to Office...
VPC 2007 is a standalone program.
