NIC teaming gone/NIC drivers won't load
I am running Windows Server 2008 R2 on Dell power edge r210 and both onboard Broadcom NICs (BCM5716C netXtreme II) are showing the yellow exclamation mark in Device Manager. When viewing the Device Status in the Properties, each one
says "This device is not configured correctly. (Code 1) The parameter is incorrect. To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver."
I have already tried the following
1. Download Latest Drivers from Manufacturers Website = Still has same problem
2. Downloaded Latest version of teaming software = Still has same problem
3. Download drivers and teaming software from Dell = Still has same problem
I can not seem to get the network adapters back, please if you are replying to this dont say download the latest drivers I have tried it

Sorry about the crazy formatting, I have tried to remove the mark-up multiple times, but it automatically updates it when I re-Post.

Liam,
Thanks for the reply but there is one major crimp to your plan, the NIC's are onboard in a 1RU rack mounted server so i cant unplug one or plug a new one in
Also the network card drivers will not install the network card for it to obtain an IP address, while they show up in device manager nothing else registers them
