Add SP2 then Server Dead.

[Guest James W. Long]

Hi guys

 

This time I got a certified for windows server 2003 nic card.

I plop in sp2 to my server and it will not talk to the world anymore.

 

There is no connectoid in network. it disappeared.

The driver for the card shows up as functioning in device manager.

(the card worked perfectly before SP2 was loaded).

 

The Network connections service hung starting.

The Com+ event system hung starting.

 

There are no endpoints. thus any service which requires them does not start.

anything I attempt to start that depends on having endpoints or which

depends on another service which needs them does not start.

all services would have started normally if whatever made these endpoints

had started (RPC?)

 

A little history.

I have tried this with service pack 1 and same result. had to back it out.

I have tried this before with service pack 2 and had to back it out.

I thought it was just a non-supported nic so I got one that IS supported and

STILL had to back it out.

 

I am most definately annoyed...searching for a hammer ..at this juncture

because I need SP2 to move along.

 

Thank you,

James Long
