Intel® Server Board SDS2

Problem:

Microsoft* Windows* 2000 NIC driver set 5.1.2 v.5.41.27 prevents the Intel®

 

Server Board SDS2 from making a DPC LAN connection when the operating

 

system is loaded.

Implication:

NIC driver set 5.1.2 v.5.41.27 for Microsoft* Windows* 2000 should not be used

 

with the Intel® Server Board SDS2 if DPC LAN is being used.

Workaround:

Intel recommends using NIC driver set 5.0.1 v.5.40.11 or driver set 5.1.3

 

v.5.41.32 in order to avoid this failure.

Status:

Fixed. Intel recommends using NIC driver set 5.0.1 v.5.40.11 or driver set 5.1.3

 

v.5.41.32 as the fix for this issue.

9.Extended RAM Step disable option in BIOS Setup has no effect

Problem:

Setting the Intel® Server Board SDS2 BIOS Setup Advanced à Memory

 

Configuration à Extended RAM Step option to “Disabled” has no effect.

Implication:

The Intel Server Board SDS2 will still perform the Extended RAM count even

 

when this option has been set to “Disabled” in BIOS Setup.

Workaround:

None.

Status:

Fixed. This issue is fixed in SDS2 BIOS Production Release 2.1 (Build 44) and

 

later versions.
