Well every version of vmware I ever used emulated the AMD pcnet32.

Or maybe the interface is just not told to use dhcp, or you don't have a
dhcp server configured on the machine to hand out IPs to vmware clients.
I have never personally used the NAT setting in vmware, so I am not sure
if it takes care of the DHCP server setup for you.

You should be able to see if windows has a network card listed in the
network control panel or whatever it was called on that version.
