Error installing Integration Services on Hyper-V VM

I was trying to change from a “Legacy Network Adapter” to a “Network Adapter” on one of my Hyper-V VMs.   I added the “Network Adapter” and removed the “Legacy Network Adapter”, and started the machine up.  When the machine came up, it wouldn’t connect to the network.  Having seen this before I knew exactly how to fix it.  Run the Integration Services install again.  I did that, and got:

An error has occurred: One of the update processes returned error code  61658

So, being the smart guy that I am, I rebooted and tried again.  Same result.  The hits I got on google suggested that I was still running an CTP or Beta, but I am running the RTM version (2008 Hyper-V, but not R2 on this one). 

I was logging into this machine with a Domain account, but it wasn’t on the network.  We use some restrictions on the server desktops and redirect application setting and such, so I thought that might be related. 

Here is what worked:

I added back the Legacy Network Adapter (leaving the non-Legacy adapter as well)

I installed integration services again (and it worked just fine)

I removed the Legacy Network Adapter

Now the machine is working just as expected.
