Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Hello Claus,

Thanks for Cris's update.

Disable the Broadcom NICs in BIOS is a good idea. Since you manage the SBS
remotely, I suggest you contact your hardware vendor (Dell or Broadcom) to
see if them are some tool to help you to disable the NIC completely.

If there's anything else I can do for you, please do not hesitate to let me
know.

Thank you and have a nice day,

Best regards,

Terence Liu(MSFT)

| Yeah, I had some other trouble with them. I guess I should switch it. The
downside is that you can't do that remotely and the client isn't in the
neighborhood.

| SBS2003R2 Premium with 2NICs. There are 4 NICs present, 2 are
disabled and
| the other 2 have static IPs (LAN and WAN).
| Sever shut down due to power failure. On bootup the server
displayed error
| messages for all 4 NICs saying that there was no DHCP server
available.
| Consequently the DHCP server shut down because there was no
network
| connection. This went on for a few hours with continuous error
messages for
| all 4 NICs (identified by MAC address).
| A hard reboot fixed the issue and both active NICs came up with
the correct
| static IPs.
| Has anybody come across this? What especially puzzles me is the
fact that 2
| NICs were disabled (verified in the device manager).
