Problem to upgrade driver on DL308G5 with NC373i

[aleilmago]

Hello.

Karlo, I have already tried this tip, without success.

This is a very difficult case!
I have no ideas...

Thank you.
Best regards.

in one of my post I commented something about R2 windows and SmartStart

what if you try rebuild the machine again with a previous smartstart 7.8 - 7.9

Hi,

did you try a firmware update of the NICs?

Sometimes this causes the driver to can't be installed.
Since you tried all workarounds and the problem persists, this can be your issue...

Hello to everyone.

I have already tried to upgrade the firmware, without success.

What is the difference between version 3.0.7.0 and the latest version (for example 4.1.5.0)?
Tha files inside the compressed file are different: the version 4.1.5.0 has more files and "wdf01005" file.

Thank you.
Best regards.

hi

with every new driver there are new fixes and enhancement but I think since 3.0.7.0 version has been a lot of issues so don't worry stay in that version until new release or until broadcom releases a new drivers

hi

any update about this issue?

I'm doing a research let me ask you

I supposed you already try manual installation?

hi

just to be sure can you upload a screenshot (pic) from your device manager? just to double check

hi again

this is another workaround you can try

it is updating virtual bus devices (which are in system devices) instead of nic cards

I attached an PDF file

check that and let us know

Hi all,

I have this issue on one BL460c (and similar on ML370G5) for almost half a year, I tried several drivers including the latest one from SmartStart 8.00 and still no success, I have 373i in Device manager with yellow exclamation mark and no network interfaces.

Procedure that works is updating driver to very old one (2.8.18.0), unfortunately this works only until restart and also teaming utility does not work with this old driver.
