I want to install the Microsoft Lookback Adapter in Windows 7. I have done this under Vista either via: 1) Control Panel, Classic View, Add Hardware 2) Device Manager, right click on root node and select Add Legacy Hardware I can't find the equivalent under Windows 7 - any suggestions? Thanks!

You're absolutely right, I can't find it anywhere either. I wonder where they hid this time.

I found the, or a, solution: The key step I was missing was how to find the Hardware Wizard: Click the Start menu. Search for cmd". Right-click on cmd and select Run as Administrator Enter hdwwiz.exe From that point on it's the same approach as under Vista, i.e.: In the "Welcome to the Add Hardware Wizard", click Next. Select "Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced)" and click Next. Scroll down and select "Network adapters" and click Next. Select under Manufacturer "Microsoft" and then under Network Adapter "Microsoft Loopback Adapter" and click Next. I've tested this and it's working for me (connecting the host to a VPC using the loopback adapter).

Great stuff, gdavi. Thanks.

gdavi, you saved my day. Thank you very much. Alexandre Paiva, MCT
