Important Note: Broadcom and Dell do not recommend or support installing the NetXtreme II drivers manually. If not in a manufacturing environment under certain controlled conditions, installing these drivers manually can cause unexpected behavior. Broadcom and Dell recommend installing the NetXtreme II and the NetXtreme I drivers with the "Driver and Management Apps Installer." Note: Windows unattended installation can be accomplished using the Driver and Management Apps Installer in the post-GUI-installation or post-install section of the Microsoft unattended installation.
