Windows 2000 Server and Dell PE 2650 built-in network adapter prob

[Guest]

Hello. I have a problem with PE 2650 and his built-in network adapter
Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet. I have exactly five 2650 servers - two
with Widows 2003 and three with Windows 2000 Server. On servers with Windows
2000 Server using Preformance Monitor I notice that the Output Queue Lenght
counter shows very high values - from 167 to 188. This value should be max 2.
I suspect that there is driver probelm, although one of this servers have
driver 6.34.4 and two others have 7.100.0. On servers with Windows 2003 there
is no problem. I'm not completly sure if this is hardware of sysytem
operating problem.
If anybody had such problem, please for help.

Hi Pawel,

why don't you contact Dell Support?

Try to download the latest drivers from _dell_, do not install any
drivers from Windows Update!

Hi, because everything works fine on Windows 2003 and don't work only on
Windows 2000 Dell Support adviced me to conntact with Microsoft. I installed
latest drivers for this network adapter but these not solve my problem.
