  Step 1: Go to Start->Settings->Control Panel and double click on Network and Dial-up Connections.

  Step 2: Right click on the NIC you want to change the MAC address and click on properties.

  Step 3: Under “General” tab, click on the “Configure” button

  Step 4: Click on “Advanced” tab

  Step 5: Under “Property section”, you should see an item called “Network Address” or “Locally Administered Address”, click on it.

  Step 6: On the right side, under “Value”, type in the New MAC address you want to assign to your NIC. Usually this value is entered without the “-“ between the MAC address numbers.

  Step 7: Goto command prompt and type in “ipconfig /all” or “net config rdr” to verify the changes.

  Step 8: If successful, reboot your systems.

  If the changes are not materialized or if you have a card that doesn’t support Clone MAC address, then you have to go to search for another method.
