Hi,

After installing Hyper V on windows 2008 server I installed windows
2003 server as my guest OS. However, I cannot find the ethernet
controller on the guest OS.

My hardware specs:

Processor: Quad-Core AMD Opteron Processor 2346 HE 1.8GHz. 64-bit
Memory: 4GB
NIC: NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller (x2)

Please advice! Thank you.

And your nVidia NIC on the host will not show up in a VM, don't try to
install nVidia drivers in the VM. The VM has a separate and different
set of hardware (emulated) from the physical hardware.

How do I do that?
Do I also need to add a legacy network adapter?

I don't have a Hyper-V PC running it the moment, but there's a menu
item for doing that.

You shouldn't need to add a legacy adapter unless you want to run
without the Integration components for awhile. (or have when using an
OS that doesn't have Integration Components.)
