I suspect your problem is your NICs? The onboard NIC is a realtek and you didn't give any indictaion of your added NIC? Try a dual port intel based card.

Also possible he downloaded the wrong ISO, the one for appliances and not the one for software install.

Is the ISO named SW-SFOS_15.01.0-376.iso or HW-SFOS_15.01.0-376.iso? The first one is the one you want, the second is only for Sophos branded appliances.

Hi Scott,
I expect you are correct with no appliance hardware found. That could also be the issue in a couple of other threads where parts don't work.
