Enabling adapter causes system runs out of memory.

[AvanB]

I have a system with 8 GB RAM and an integrated 82574L Nic.

I had to reïnstall the driver.

After that when I only load the driver, the system runs fine.

But when I enable one of the two adapters, the system runs out of memory within 1 minute.

What or how do I have to configure to solve this big problem?

Or is there any other solution?

Hi wb,

Thank you for the response.

The system is a Supermicro X8ST3 2.0

The OS is Windows 7 Professional SP1. All updates are installed.

Let me explain the history.

The system was installed in de past with de OEM driver Intel_PRO_v16.5 by someone before me.

Then I downloaded Intel_PRO_v19.5 from Intel and updated the network driver.

After that the problem ocurred.

So I complitly removed the driver and reïnstallled Intel_PRO_v19.5

But the problem consists.

So I thought to solve the problem by removing the driver again an reïnstall the Original one Intel_PRO_v16.5.

But that did not solve the problem.

Hi wb,

No, I'm sorry.

Yesterday I installed the lastest driver which I had downloaded from Supermicro, but the problem still consists.

Hi Alfred,

Thank you for the update. Please try upgrading the BIOS from the system. Have you also check compatibility with Supermicro to isolate the issue?

Thanks,
