hasbrotech Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I have a Dell GX280 that when I load BARTPE and it tries to load the NIC driver the system halts witha NMI parity error.Ive updated the NIC drivers in Bart to the latest Broadcom for the 280, and have updated my Bios to A05 on the Dell.Any ideas what might be going on ?

Jazkal Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 do you have a riser card in the system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hasbrotech Posted May 25, 2005 Author Share Posted May 25, 2005 if you mean do I have a PCI riser card for expansion cards yes I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazkal Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I would run a test. Remove the riser card and test BartPE. I would bet it is a problem with the riser card and interaction with BartsPE. This would narrow down the possible issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hasbrotech Posted May 25, 2005 Author Share Posted May 25, 2005 Pulled the riser card and still have same issue. I have updated the bios to A05, and even tried new memory.any other ideas ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazkal Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 The only other thing I can think of, is to disable the NIC is the BIOS (if possible). Then test it. we want to narrow it down to a specific item, that we can say "when we turn this off, it works". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
