8 With Windows Vista, Microsoft dropped support for the AMD PCNet
9 card that legacy versions of <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> used to provide as
10 the default virtual network card. For Windows Vista guests,
11 <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> now uses an Intel E1000 card by default.

14 If, for some reason, you still want to use the AMD card, you
15 need to download the PCNet driver from the AMD website. This
16 driver is available for 32-bit Windows only. You can transfer it
17 into the virtual machine using a shared folder. See
18 <xref href="sharedfolders.dita">Shared Folders</xref>.
