w00t! I can keep Hyper-V after all!

I can keep Hyper-V after all! How did I get back Client for Microsoft Networking do you ask?

In my intarweb searchings I came across this blog entry.

Here is the solution in a nutshell.

Blow away any pre-existing virtual NICs with the Hyper-V manager. With your physical NIC go ahead and un-bind all protocols. Once that is done, go back into Hyper-V manager and re-create a virtual NIC and viola, you'll have a virtual NIC with Client for Microsoft Networks bound. Just reboot your machine and it should be good to go.

Back to using Hyper-V for prototyping! Yay!

Thanks, Jeff! You rock!
