:erm: Is it possible to run out of PCIe lanes?
I installed a PCIe Intel Pro/1000 PT server card in my desktop and it doesn't appear in the device listing during boot sequence, nor in Windows. I tried it in two different PCIe x1 slots with the same results. It works in another system just fine, so I know the card isn't bad.
I'm running a Gigabyte P35-DS4. I have a nVidia 7900GS and a Dell Perc 5/i in my system. Presumably they are both running x8. When I pull the Dell Perc 5/i from the system the NiC shows in the device listing and in Windows. :scratch:
