Complete the Server Wizard?
I was testing Win2k Server in my machine
before i install it on a new E60 Server
and it gave me a error : "Network cannot be found". This will be my first network implementation with this product
P.S: I don't have a Network Adapter, too

I know WinNT Server 4.0 had to have some sort of NIC adaptor installed to work correctly, and you can get around this by using the MS Loopback adaptor.
 
But I thought that W2K would do this for you as it tried to detect your NIC and couldn't find one.
 
But really, a NIC isn't going to cost no more then $30 - $40. If you can afford W2K Server, I'm sure you can afford a NIC.
