I have got a Dell PE2600 and I have to boot it up onto the network with a DOS bootdisk.I have a universal network bootdisk, it detects the card, but when the card initialize,it does not load the network drivers. Works with other Dell PE1750,2600 and 4200.Have tried everything.The nic works in windows.Updated firmware.Any suggestions??

Dell PE2600 Server not booting with nic
- Thread starter ttdds1
- Start date
What OS, what release?, Bios ver, what brand NIC? Does it boot fine w/o the NIC in it? Why do you have to use a boot disk etc.? Have you tried another NIC?
Wanna sell the PE2600 since it's broken?
