Proliant ML350G04 fails 3Com 3C996-sx

[Peter Hazebroek]

When I install a 3C996-SX fiber card in my ML350G4, the server gives the error Unsupported PCI device detected.
The network card has the correct specs PCI-X 133, this should be compatible with the server specs

Anyone have any suggestions, BIOS update ?

Kind regards,
Peter

Hi Peter;

3com does not support this NIC in HP Proliant Servers...

If you go to the 3com knowledgebase it's Solution ID 3KB15055

Just to let you all know this card will work fine in the dl380 servers. I am having a problem with getting it working in the dl360's. But according to 3com it is your problem not theirs.
