Workstation 7.1.2 VM's not pinging the local PC

[virtualdive]

Hi,

I have WorkStation 7.1.2 installed in my PC and I have created 4 VM's with different flavour OS including Windows Server 2008. Even though these VM's are on Bridged networking I am not able to ping to-and-fro.

I want to ping my VM's from my local desktop and otherway round too.

Please can you suggest, where am I going wrong.

Thanks,

In most casese this issue is caused by a firewall and/or AV application on the hosts system blocking the traffic.

First of all make sure you do NOT have Virtual Network Editor looking like this
