Problem: Need to reinstall Network card everytime after server reboot.

A Windows 2003 SBS problem. We need to reinstall Network card everytime if server rebooted.

The server have above problem is a Dell 2950 running Windows 2003 Small Business Server. It's running DNS, DHCP, Active Directory, Exchange 2003.

We have perform below action recently.

Used Acronis True Image Echo Server to clone a harddisk image.

Restore it by Acronis True Image Echo Server(Dos mode) in a new server: Dell 2950.

Insert a Windows 2003 sbs DVD to reinstall the window without delete any data.

We can login to Window with all old server setting and function. But need to reinstall network card driver. (Broadcom: NetXtreme II Family of Adapters)

Evenif we installed it and every service can be run, it will be missing if we reboot server.
