Have you tried copying the default gateway addy from the Lubuntu VM and assigning it to the windows VM, then setting a fixed IP in the same range for the windows VM?

I was trying to avoid setting a static IP. That will, however, be my last resort if deleting the adapter and/or resetting the IP stack don't work. I considered setting a static IP last night, but I see no reason why the Windows VM shouldn't work just as well as the Linux VM does.

You should at least set the default gateway. Without that, it might not be able to figure out where to go.

With DHCP, you don't have to (and can't) set it explicitly.

Sure, but it's windows, and windows networking has always been notorious for not knowing where to look (largely because it guesses at values based on previous config, which, with a VM, can get slightly random).

Set the default gateway, reboot the machine within the VM, then go back to autoconfig. It might behave itself, then (once you've rebooted it again -- windows networking just can't be happy without reboots).

And the weirdness continues...

When I got home from work, I started the VM, and now everything is fine - without me having to do anything. I'm at a loss.

Using Windows is like having kids. You've gotta have it, and it can make you happy sometimes, but mostly it's just a lot of extra work and uncertainty.

Amazing build for a game I want to do now. I have a ton of Legos (not literally), so I could probably build something cool. Or I could do it in Minecraft on a server. That might be easier. Or not.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

My daughter is a pretty good Lego builder, but this would make her turn green with envy.

Two different beasts - lego and minecraft. Both would be nice, but if you want physical hands on experience then Lego is your main option.

Minecraft would be fun, and would look better than Lego in my opinion, but I think Lego would be more challenging, which attracts me more.

or, you can do both. Thumbs Up | :thumbsup:

Maybe not as visually impressing, but nevertheless the greatest Lego build I ever saw, is The LEGO Turing Machine[^].

Maybe it is because I am a computer guy. I guess my mother would have said "Huh? What's that?"

Given I'm now a one-eyed cat looking in a seafood store [^], barely able to spot a ripe fish-head in the back alley ... how I got in there is a mystery, perhaps a mistake, but ...

I'd like to thank these folks, who I believe go out of their way to help others in QA, and the language forums:

the one-and-only-river-unto-his-people OriginalGriff, Richard Deeming, Richard MacCutchan, Maciej Los, RickZeeland, Afzaal Ahmad Zeeshan

And, I'd like to give a deep wai, the Thai gesture of respect, to the immortals: Pete O, Marc Clifton, Mehdi Gholam

At the risk of sounding like the old f**t I have become: knowing the future is in the hands of people like Afzaal, Raddevus, and the other "rising stars" here, is a joy !
