    Hello,

    To enable network support in Windows Vista, you should install driver for network card inside Vista. To do this, you should go through the following steps:

    1. Connect Parallels Tools CD image (vmtools.iso) to VM. You can find
    Parallels Tools CD image at the /Library/Parallels/Tools folder.

    2. In the Windows Vista Start menu, go to Control Panel -> System -> Device Manager and select
    Network Adapters -> Parallels Network Adapter in the left panel. Double click it.

    3. Choose Driver -> Update Driver... -> Browse for driver software on your computer. Point the path to your CD.

    4. When Windows asks you what driver to use, you should point to:

    Drivers/Network/RTL8029/Win2000.XP.ME.2003 on your virtual CD-ROM.

    If there is still no Internet connection, please check ping by IP, by hostname and nslookup by hostname
    So, if:

    ping by IP works
    ping by hostname does not
    nslookup works (that was really strange)

    Please have a look at the following article:
