Hello VMWare experts,

I have VMware Workstation 17 Player (registered for commercial use). I have Windows 10 Virtual machine and inside this machine, when I enter device manager, NIC (LAN) adapter are recognized as Intel NIC. 

On the other hand, if I install Linux Mint inside VM and execute lspci terminal command to get information about the NIC, I gt something like this: Ethernet controller [0200]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] 79c970

So, somehow Linux Mint recognized virtual NIC inside the VM as AMD NIC.

Is it possible to define that this virtual NIC adapter show inside the Mint also as Intel NIC? 

I have tried to install Intel pro Linux drivers inside the machine but didn't have any success?

Is this even controllable by the user or only by the OS itself that is installed inside VM?

Thank you.
