I found a soulution that works for me to get network connection in Windows 7 inside a VMware virtual machine.
It's rather simple add the following line to the .vmx file
ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000"
This adds an Intel (R) Pro /1000 MT network adapter to the virtual machine.
The connection type has to be "bridged" but VM will warn and change it if the type is anything but "bridged".

Hope this helps someone.
Yours
