Question I've never seen this before ...

I just typed IPCONFIG in CMD, and got some strange results -- 2 new ethernet adapters that I've never seen before. Please review the attached BMP file.

The homebox, 192.168.2.2 is my computer w/ correct router IP. Now what's up w/ the two other adapters w/ the hex numbers and no gateways?

Mind you, I have a wireless adapter on the computer, but I've disabled it in device manager. In the Network Connections window I see the WiFi disabled and only 1 Local Area Network Connection listed and connected.

Can anyone shead some light on this?

P/S - Running XP SP3.

Re: I've never seen this before ...

Have you tried taking out your adapter and putting it back in?

Re: I've never seen this before ...

Well, it's not a hardware issue since I can ping/browse the web. But, get this, I just peeked the device manager and noticed that there are two virtual ethernet adapters. I have recently installed 2 linux distros via VMware.

Thanks for the help, though!
