      Widnows 8.1 doesn't support it. Windows 7 is supposed to, but doesn't. We know it worked on XP, but we don't have any liscenses for XP. With the support ending soon, will that be an issue?

      I have never heard of any NICs not being supported in Windows. At all. Ever.

      http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/downloaddrivers.php

      Considering they have NDIS drivers for the NICs, it's a safe bet it will work in any version of Windows you throw at it. For [moderated] sake, they have legacy drivers for Windows 95.

      And the link has RPMs for both RedHat and SuSE.

        @scottalanmiller Nope. @PSX_Defector The website and all sources say the driver is supported, but the pregram itself says it isnt when it installs.

          That probably means that the NIC is dead.

            Well, we've got a new nic. I'll see if we can't get Windows 7 back on it if that will work well.
