Hi,
I am running Windows Server 2003 x64 on a ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe (BIOS
Version 1006) with 4GB RAM. In order to enable 4GB of RAM I set the
BIOS-setting "Memory Hole for PCI MMI0" to ENABLED.
Everything is running smooth, except the following: When I try to map a
network drive on a remote PC, I am not able to get a connection to the
remote PC.
However, when the BIOS-setting "Memory Hole for PCI MMI0" is set to
DISABLED, I can connect to the remote PC.
However, in both cases pinging the remote PC is working; Internet
connection is working too.
Any suggestions?
Ralph

That BIOS is pretty old, you should upgrade it..

Thank you for the suggestion. I upgraded the BIOS to version 1015; the
connection problem did not disappear, however.
Any further suggestions?

Which network port are you using, the NVidia or the Marvell? Make sure
the drivers are up to date for whichever you're using, and if that one
still doesn't work, maybe try the other one.

I have this board and when I install Vista x64 on it I do not get a
connection until I manually install an ethernet bridge device in the Device
Manager. I don't think I had to do anything similar in XP x64, but there
may be one more device driver you need to install. Since I am not running
Server, I can't do any more than throw out a clue.

Right, I think there are explicit instructions on the nVidia Download
site. You cannot get a NIC recognized simply by running a setup
program for the Vista nForce driver package they provide, but they
give you a step-by-step method for doing it.
