for google sake, let's post it again.
I will say this.. You will eventually spot the problems we created while we tried to solve a puzzle in this match up.
- - - - -
NVIDIA homework on LAN
(could still have errors and could have wrong ideas.)
<<<<< <<<<< means there is a secondary match with the corresponding controller for the PCI HWID in the same driver
example
{1a3e09be-1e45-494b-9174-d7385b45bbf5}\NVNET_DEV07DC
PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_07DC <<<<< <<<< because 07DC matches (as seen in 16.08)
When a combination like this is in a driverset, it should be compared to other combinations
In the ideal world, the newer combo has to be kept.
I think that when a PCI has no matching NVNET_DEV line in same driver set, and in an other you see it has, the combination should not be broken.
I also think that in such case, the PCI HWID without NVNET_DEV match must be commented.
You will find PCI HWIDS like PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_XXXX without such ..bbf5}\NVNET_DEVXXXX tied to it.
And you will also find ..bbf5}\NVNET_DEVXXXX lines with NO PCI\VEN.. tied to it.
PLEASE always try to find the newest possible combos.

--------------------
I will repeat, these findings are not the bible.
I had to eyeball. I was using techniques and some common sense just like any good Watson would.
I never said Watson was equal to Holmes. Holmes is a nobody. He has to explain the puzzle. Watson solves no puzzle without getting clues.
(There is no such thing as Hari Seldon.)
The answer was 42?
Kind regards, Jaak.
