Another couple of updates on my progress.
I'm running Vista 32 Bit under VirtualBox in Linux Mint.
The adapter had put itself on a 10.x.x.x range.  I switched that to bridge to my local adapter to get the local network IP on it.

API mode still does not work, same error.
Leaving API unchecked now puts the proper name in but it's not actually displaying anything else for status.
