Workstation 9 not recognizing PCI-E NIC

Hi Folks,

I've been searching the web but can't seem to find any solutions to my problem.

Host OS: Ubuntu 12.04

vmWare: Workstation 9

guest OS: Ubuntu 12.04

My pc has:

*2 on board nic's

*1 WLAN PCI-E card

*1 4x(10/100/1000 Ethernet) PCI-E 2.0, intel I340-T4

The host o/s sees all of the NIC's fine - however workstation 9 does not see the PCI-E NIC's.  It only sees the onboard NICs.  This is preventing me from setting up virtual NIC's bridged to the PCI-E NICs.  Does anyone have any ideas - because I am fresh out.

Thanks,

AP
