In Vmware, select properties of the server
Select Network Adapter
Set the following

1. Check "Connected"
2. Check "Connect at power on"
3. Check "Bridged: Connected directly to the physical network"

Start the virtual server
Once loaded to go:

Start => Control Panel => Network Connections => RIGHT CLICK "Network Connections" and select "EXPLORE"

Select Local Area Connection (NOT 2!)
Right Click on Local Area Connection => Select "Properties"

Click "Properties"

In the tab "General"
Check:

1. Obtain an IP address automatically
2. Obtain DNS server address automatically

Click "Ok"
Click "Ok again"

Still in the "Network Connections"
Right Click on Local Area Connection and select "Repair"
now windows will delete and re-cache all settings and repair the network connection

Start the virtual server

Only information you needed to give, short and sweet to the point. The rest is auto configured by the operating system and your router, since a virtual machine only uses one Nat.
