Yemble 0 Posted June 29, 2019 Report Share Posted June 29, 2019 I have VmWare Workstation installed on my PC, although I rarely use it. However, I have noticed that AIDA64 displays the Primary IP Address as one of the two VmWare virtual NIC addresses rather than the physical ethernet NIC address of the PC's wired connection. There does not appear to be any way in AIDA64 to select the correct NIC for the Primary IP Address. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In rare cases Windows treats one of the least used network adapters as primary. We haven't found a way to fix it from our end. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yea, only when I disable both virtual NICs does AIDA64 show the correct Primary IP. Oh well, NP, as long as you are already aware of it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BenH 0 Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 It's funny how I posted how to fix this back in 2018. No response on my post and still has not been fixed... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
