[ganeshpicopc]

I have this issue of I226-V driver not working on windows server 2019 and 2022 but when i try to manually install the driver pack its taking I225-IT and working fine and also I can confirm the hardware used on the mother was I226-V as I installed windows 10 and 11, its taking the I226-V as normal but the only issue on windows servers os. Can somebody know this issue and how to rectify it?

Hello,  @ganeshpicopc 

Thank you for contacting Intel Embedded Community.

We want to address the following questions to understand this situation:

Could you please clarify if this request is related to the Intel® Ethernet Controller I226-V design developed by you, or is a Network Interface Card (NIC) or add-in card developed by a third-party company?

Could you please let us know the name of the manufacturer, the part number, and where we can find the information if this request is related to a third-party design?

We are waiting for your answer.

Best regards,

@CarlosAM_INTEL.

Hello,

We have an Intel(R) Ethernet Controller I226-V on our MPG Z890 CARBON WIFI motherboard.
We are unable to install it on Windows Server 2019, 2022, or 2025. As a workaround, we have to manually select the I226-IT driver during installation.
