Intel ethernet drivers v.20.7.1 NDIS62 - crashing SCCM 2012

[AMcGa1]

Had an issue with the latest v.20.7.1 intel ethernet driver download, for which I attempted to load the NDIS62 driver into SCCM 2012 (v.5.0.8239.1000) driver database, which crashed the system. Tried this in both a test environment and live environment and had the same effect in both.

Just a warning to Intel development team and any other users trying to do the same thing!

Hi UmpaLumpur,

Thank you for the information.

I see you are using HP laptop, please try using the driver from HP's website.
