When I go through the Hardware Configuration tool on the System Partition, it identifies and activates the NIC. I get link lights on my switch. If I review the hardware settings, it is also set to "enabled".
However, when I reboot the machine, the NIC stops working. The link light goes away, Windows 2003 doesn't recognize any Network or even unknown adapters, so it really looks like it is disabled in BIOS/NVRAM still.
I have repeated the Hardware Configuration step several times with the same results.
Any other place I need to go to enable the NIC? Or any ideas?
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionThe onboard NIC on the Proliant 1600 is a Netflex 3. This card is not supported by default in the Windows 2003 installation so you have to load the Windows 2000 driver. This driver works fine in Windows 2003, it might not be digitally signed that's all.
Please download and run the following Netflex 3 driver. This should resolve your problem.

Re: Proliant 1600 - can't enable NIC
I would really check for an updated driver for the NIC that is supported under Windows 2003.
Also, have you checked for port speed/duplex mismatch. I know you mentioned that you have played with the speed on the card but what about on the switch end? Try setting them to both 100Mbps/Full duplex (if thats supported by your network) on the NIC and the switch port end.
Let us know how you go with this.
