21. Intel® LAN driver installation failure on Windows* 7
Problem The Intel
®
LAN driver version 16.8 and below may not be installed sucessfully
on Windowns* 7 with the .bat installation scripts in the driver package.
Implication The LAN driver can not be installed by the .bat installation scripts in the driver
package.
Status The issue was fixed in a Intel
®
LAN driver version 17.1 release.
Workaround Two workarounds are availalbe:
1. The LAN driver can be manually installed.
2. User can lower the “User Account Control” to “Never Notify”, then

22. Hard drives connected through SAS expander can’t be detected
in legacy mode
Problem If hard drives are connected through expander to SCU ports and configured
under RSTe mode, the hard drives can’t be detected by system in legacy
mode (default BIOS setting).
Implication Users can’t use the hard drives connected through expander as boot device
to install OS. But users can install OS to other hard drives which are not
connected through expander and load RSTe driver to make the hard drives
connected through expander visible to OS. Or users can change Boot
Options -> EFI Optimized Boot to “Enabled” in BIOS Setup so that hard
drives connected through expander can be detected by the system.
Status This issue may be fixed in a future BIOS release.
Workaround None.
23. System will boot from on-board video although install add-in
video card
Problem When try to boot from add-in video card, system can not boot up.
Implication Bios video output policy by default was booting from onboard video although
install the add-in video card.
Status This issue was fixed in Bios 01.02.0009 and changed video output to
installed add-in video card by default.
