NIC driver for W2K on 110 G5

[Jerry A smith]

Hi, have installed Windows 2K server on the ML110 G5, but having a problem finding a driver for the NIC (indeed having a problem finding out which one it is). Can anyone help please. Thanks, Jerry

Jerry,

It appears W2K isn't listed as being supported by HP on the ML110 G5:

Quick Specs:

You can still run the Insight Offline Diags and it should help you identify which NIC you have installed:

Drivers for supported configurations can be located here:

Hi guys, thanks for the replies. I was aware that W2K is not supported on this server, but others on this forum have installed and run it so it had to be possible.
Srinivas, thanks for the link to the driver, that one works a treat, and then after running the Intel chipset setup on the Smartstart CD that came with the server everything is now up and running.
Thanks again, Jerry
