Topic: [REQ] Intel GD82559ER

I have an older AMI board that runs  an Intel GD82559ER LAN that isn't detected by DP LAN. I'm unsure if Intel offically supports this model for XP (no I don't run this board with XP, use it as a simple file server)

Just thought I would mention. smile

Can you post your HWID string?  Use the link in my signature.

Here ya go:

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1209&SUBSYS_00048086&REV_09\4&25CE13C1&0&48F0: Intel(R) GD82559ER PCI Adapter

You da man!

Re: [REQ] Intel GD82559ER

OK, here's what I found out.
Your mobo (AMI Olympus II) uses the Intel 815E northbridge and the Intel 82559ER NIC chip.  The drivers you pointed to in your first post only support Win9x, NT, 2000.  Mobo Data sheet is here.

Going to the Intel download center for that NIC chip here gives you the available OS options.

Weird...WinXP (home/pro) isn't listed but WinXP x64, Vista (64-bit flavors), WinXP embedded (new one on me), and even Linux are listed.

The "XP Embeded" drivers from Intel have almost the same filenames as the ones in the DP_LAN (missing e100ent.sys)but the version numbers/dates are different, the HWID string isn't listed though (easy enough to add).  This is in the DP_LAN_wnt5_x86-32_701\D\L\IN\PRO100 directory.

I'd venture a guess that with WinXP (32) you're out of luck.

You say you don't run XP on this mobo...so what do you run and what are you requesting?

Re: [REQ] Intel GD82559ER

I'm using this Mobo as a file server with Server '03. When I looked up the drivers at Intel, I noticed the same thing. When I pointed to the Win2000 driver, it worked like a charm. (I'm assuming the driver would work just fine in XP but never tried)

I'll leave this up to your discression if you want to update the HWID to the existing drivers. I'm just another geek trying to do my part for the DriverPacks smile
