Networking 2 Server 2008 virtual machines

My host is Windows 7, I'm trying to create a virtual forest for server exams.
I have 4 server 2008 machines and 1 server 2003 acting as a RAS server. I am
trying to create 2 separate networks. 192.168.1.0 and 192.168.2.0. first I
set up the 2 servers with a static ip (192.168.1.10 and 192.168.2.10). Then I
set up routing on the 2003 server. I get no connectivity between the 2
subnets. I drop the 2003 server and put both 2008 servers on the same subnet
(192.168.1.0) with IP's respectively 192.168.1.10 and 192.168.1.11. I can not
ping the two. I have both 2008 servers using local host network adapters and
the 2003 server has 3 adapters 2 as local only and 1 as NAT. I installed the
virtual networking drivers and still the same problem. any help on this would
be greatly appreciated.

If IP routing is enabled on the server, all you need is to set the
router as the default gateway for both servers.

192.168.1.10 dg 192.168.1.1
|
192.168.1.1 dg blank
router
192.168.2.1 dg blank
|
192.168.2.11 dg 192.168.2.1

If that doesn't work, double check the router setup.
