<div>GV,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Yes, after installing the latest beta from the website I was still receiving the error message about missing Netmon. I tested it just in case the error message wasn't valid. That's the point at which I resorted to installing the latest NetMon package from Microsoft. I still received the error message, but my tests were successful thereafter (oddly enough). </div>

<div>Thanks,</div>

<div>GV,</div>

<div>Thanks for the reply. It's good to know that the issue is being addressed. The fix in the latest beta did not work for me. The main reason that I posted my tip was to offer an alternative solution. The XP SP2 image that I'm using must have some additional issues which cause the WinPcap installer to fail to address the problem. For some users installing the Netmon package from Microsoft might be a better solution, because it might be very difficult for you to account for all of the non-standard or stripped configurations of Windows (such as mine).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I didn't find the suggestion about installing Netmon during my searches on Google. So I mostly wanted to share the idea as widely as possible so that when someone else runs into the same problem, they can benefit from my experience. The important thing is to resolve the issue one way or another. </div>

<div><br></div><tt>Error: "An error occurred while installing the Microsoft Network Monitor Driver </tt><tt>(NetMon) (0x800F0203). You will be able to use WinPcap on standard </tt><tt>network adapters, but not on Dialup connections and VPNs. Please contact </tt><tt>the WinPcap team."<br>
<br>I've been struggling with this error for the past 2 hours and I finally found a solution. Now I'm finally able to run GNS (Cisco emulator). I believe the problem stems from using a heavily customized version (i.e. stripped) of Windows XP SP2. First I tried uninstall Winpcap and installing the latest beta release which didn't help. Then I tried installing Windows XP Support Tool and running "c:\Program Files\Support Tools\netcap.exe", which failed to work. So that led me down a different route which was to install Microsoft Network Monitor 3.2 from: <br>
<br><a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=f4db40af-1e08-4a21-a26b-ec2f4dc4190d&displaylang=en#filelist" target="_blank">http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=f4db40af-1e08-4a21-a26b-ec2f4dc4190d&displaylang=en#filelist</a><br>
<br>After installing Netmon 3.2, I ran the program and everything launched without a problem. So I ran the Winpcap beta again. Note that I still got the error during installation, but I was able to run Dynamips. This finally allowed me to launch GNS and start using it. I know other people have run into this problem and I hope this information will help avoid reinstallations of Windows. <br>
<br>Thanks,<br>Matt<br><br></tt></div></div>
