On my servers on Windows 2012 R2, I have a x710 with random disconnection with two scenarios.
1- During the windows startup, I see many error in the event viewer related to disconnections .
2- Going to the properties of the drivers, cause the nic to disconnect.
I have all lastest drivers and firmware. On the same server we have Mellanox Connectx 4 without any of these issues.

Hi Chrdionne,
Please try run msconfig, then under the startup tab, please look for services that relates to NVMeUpdate , please disable it if there is.

Hi Chrdionne,
Just to double check as you mentioned it is a adapter from Dell, is it embedded on the Dell system?

I am having a case with Dell about the disconnections issue. But for now, I just want to not have NVMeUpdate running at reboot. I am having this since I try to running NVMeUpdate downloaded from Intel web site.

Hi chrdionne, regarding the NVMeUpdate running at reboot issue, please share more information (steps you took to run the update tool, screenshot of NVMeUpdate running at reboot).
Based on the quick usage guide of NVM Update tool posted in
https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/embedded/products/networking/nvm-update-tool-quick-windows-usage-guide.html https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/embedded/products/networking/nvm-update-tool-quick-windows-usage-guide.html
the nvmupdatew64e.exe is manually triggered by user since in your case it's running automatically after reboot. we need additional information to further investigate.
Thanks,
Vince
