HP Microserver N54 Driver Question
Hey guys,
I have decided to install Windows 8 on my HP Microserver N54.
The problem is all the drivers on HP website are designed for Windows Home Server.
Is there a work around this as Im only getting 10gb/sec network transfers atm :( :( :(

Re: HP Microserver N54 Driver Question
According to page 90 of this document, all the current Proliant MicroServer models have a Broadcom BCM5723 gigabit Ethernet controller. Through http://www.hp.com/go/support I can find drivers only for Windows Server 2008, 2008 R2, 2008 Small Business, 2012 and 2012 Essentials, and for RedHat Linux 5 Server.
The Broadcom BCM5723 is a common server NIC chip, so the driver for it may be built-in to new operating systems.
But if you need one, you could try these drivers direct from Broadcom:
http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/netxtreme_server.php
For a regular 1 Gbit/s NIC it is impossible to get 10gb/s speeds, so I assume you've made a mistake somewhere.
If you have added an extra high-performance NIC to your Microserver, identifying the make and model of the NIC would be rather important in finding a driver for it...
