i have the same problem on a BL490c G7. You must load the custom drivers at installation of ESX.

Thank's for your answer Michael & Xavier,

But, how to load the driver when the ESX not yet installed on the server??
i'm still confused for this progress...


Thank's a lot

Hello,
you have to use custom drivers cd from vmware DURING ESX instalation...
