  2. Windows 10 Intel 82579v Problem

After installing Windows Server 2012 on my homebrew server, the onboard Intel 82579V Gigabit NIC on the Asus P9X79 motherboard was not working. /acca-manual-s-free-download.html. On the Asus site I found Windows 8 Intel drivers for the motherboard. After installing the drivers the NIC was still not working. To get the Intel 82579V NIC working in Windows Server 2012, I used the this forum thread as reference for this blog post.

Here are the steps:

  • To be able to modify the drivers you need to run the the following commands:

According to your description, it should be driver compatibility problem with Windows 10 TP 10041. Based on my research, Intel just released a new driver for Windows 8.1 at 3/17/2015, you can access to the link below to download and install the latest driver for test. Half a year ago there was a similar problem mainly affecting laptops making them unable to connect to the internet. Back then it was a TCP/IP problem and could be fixed by simply resetting TCP/IP. Good to know that Microsoft broke Windows again so I will no doubt see a couple of machines with this problem in the coming days-weeks. My specific problem seems to be consistent with the wrong drivers loading for the NICs, which will happen randomly. So, it looks like machines have two 'competing' drivers for the onboard NIC. When they load the driver for the Intel 82579LM then they get no network and 'device cannot start' blob in device manager.

  • Reboot
  • Download the Intel drivers. In my case I used the Intel drivers Asus has available for the Asus P9X79 motherboard
  • Save them to a map and extract them if needed
  • Open the folder PRO1000
  • Open the folder Winx64
  • Open the folder NDIS63
  • Open the e1c63x64.inf file, I used Notepad++ to edit the file
  • In the [ControlFlags] section delete the 3 lines (1)
  • Select and copy the five %E1503 lines (2)
  • Paste the 5 lines in the [Intel.NTamd64.6.2] section below the %1502NC lines
  • After the modifications the e1c63x64.inf file must look like this:
  • Save the file
  • Install the Intel drivers
  • After the installation the Intel 82579V Gigabit NIC is recognized and enabled
  • Enable the driver integrity checks and disable test signing again by using the following commands:
  • Reboot
