Hi All
Got some blades that are showing nics twice in device manager and 'network connections'.

The are as per:


The ones I think are bogus show in device manager as:
Broadcom BCM5708S NetXtreme II GigE (NDIS VBD Client) They have these drivers loaded:

c:\windows\system32\bxndcox.dll File Ver 3.7.2.0 2007
c:\windows\system32\drivers\bxnd52x.sys File Ver 4.1.3.0 2008

The two real connections are teamed and are deliving exchange OWA so are definately working. They show in device manager as Broadcom NetXtrem Gigabit Ethernet.
c:\windows\system32\drivers\b57xp32.sys File Ver 9.81.0 2006

But in the broadcom control suite 3 the adaptors
that have the team are showing the driver as:

b57xp32.sys File Ver:9.81.0 Driver Date: 4/13/2007

Anyone have any ideas?
