NIC teaming problem after migrating 2000 to 2003

We had a HP DL360 Server with Windows 2000 server installed and a TEAMING between two NIC´s 7781. We have migrated to Windows 2003
Server sp1 without breaking the team first, and now we have several networking problems.
We cant access the network connections tab, we cant unistall the driver or the software for the nics.
We have tried to roll back the drivers to different versions and to remove the team, but nothing works, and this is a Domain Controller on a production enviroment so we cant play with it too much.
Has anyone any idea of a possible solution for this problem?? PLEASE HELP !!

Well number make an other domain controler FAST...alway good to have 2 DC.

Then you go delete all driver that refer to NIC´s 7781 (q57xp32.sys)in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers.

Make sure you got the drive download first or USB KEY.http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/24282.html
version 9.25.0.0 (23 May 06)
