H55M-E23 NIC negotiation issues

Hello,
i have purchased a desktop PC with H55M-E23 with Realtek Gigabit 8111E/8186, 4GB RAM, Ge-Force GTX 460 1 GB, Intel i5 processor running on Windows 7
i have an issue with this particular NIC, it resets to 10Mb, what ever i do.
i tried changing drivers to included with MotherBoard, tried different drivers, including newest from Realtek website, , it automatically resets to 10Mb and all speed tests and window task manager shows that,
i tried manually setting speed to 100Mb full/half duplex, to 1Gb no effect, it automatically resets to 10Mb and all speed tests and window task manager shows that,
i tried turning of Wake-On-LAN, and any of possibly related options in advanced section of the device (power consumption, magic packets, and so on...), it automatically resets to 10Mb and all speed tests and window task manager shows that,
i tried turning off the power to the PC and removing the bios battery, it automatically resets to 10Mb and all speed tests and window task manager shows that,
i switched wake up events from bios to OS, it automatically resets to 10Mb and all speed tests and window task manager shows that,
i checked router/switch if the speed is set to 10Mb, forced it to 100Mb, it automatically resets to 10Mb and all speed tests and window task manager shows that,
only thing that "occasionally" helps is reinstalling drivers, that helps for some time, not often to switch to 100Mb (i have router with capabilities only of 100Mb).
please help me, because currently only option i see is to buy a new NIC, thank you

Can you test with another Cat 5E or Cat 6 RJ45 cable?

H55M-E23 Problems with Onboard Realtek Gigabit NIC

I just finished a new build HTPC using the H55M-E23 and I'm having problems with the onboard Realtek Gigabit LAN controller.
System specs are: OS is Windows 7 - 64 bit. Intel i3-540 @ 3.0 GHz, 4GB RAM, 60GB SSD. NVIDIA GT 430 video card w/ 1MB RAM is only add in card. 300 Watt Power Supply. NVIDIA card is the primary video card and is set up that way in BIOS.
Everything installed fine and seems to work great, except that when I watch HD video, stored on a local NAS on my home network (all gigabit, including cables), about half the time, the Realtek controller will drop to about 10 MBPS, which causes the video to stutter and lockup. The video normally streams across the network at about 23 MBPS max. All other PC's on my network play these videos (home movies) no problem. CPU utilization on the MSI board is only about 5% and the video card's GPU utilization maxes out at only about 65% when the videos are streaming properly. Also, I can copy the video directly to the SSD on this HTPC and the video plays fine. So I think the rest of the hardware on the HTPC is sufficient to do what I'm trying to do. The truly annoying thing is that sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't work.
All the latest drivers have been installed for the motherboard, video card, and Realtek NIC (trying both from MSI's website and Realtek's with the same result). The Windows installation is very clean. I've wiped the SSD twice and done a fresh Windows install and tried this immediately after the Windows install has competed and all drivers installed and again after Windows has completed all updates and I get the same result each time. I've tried several "slow network connection" solutions from Google and none so far have worked.
For anyone old like me, this acts like an IRQ conflict from back in the early days of Windows. Of course Windows 7 doesn't let you mess with IRQ's anymore, at least that I can find. BTW, Device Manager lists the IRQ for the Realtek NIC as "-2", which is very odd to me, but I'm no expert. I'm at the point now of disabling the onboard Realtek LAN and buying a cheap NIC to see if that works, but wanted to try to see if MSI has any suggestions or should I RMA the board? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben

Yeah, I agree that I'll need to upgrade the PSU anyway. 300W is marginal at best for this setup. I would have probably been ok without the add in video card, but the GT 430 really makes a difference compared to the built-in graphics of the i3 and the card was so inexpensive that it was a no-brainer. I may try to take out the GT 430 just to see if the Realtek NIC behaves better, but I think long term I'll just get a cheap PCI-e NIC and that should fix things.
I would normally suspect the SSD as well, but I get the stuttering when I'm using the network streaming. The videos play fine when running directly off of the SSD. I know the SSD could still cause issues, but everything just seems to point to the Realtek chip. Honestly, I really think it's a driver / setting issue and not a bad piece of hardware, although I could be wrong.
If anyone has any other ideas, please keep 'em coming. In the meantime, I'll try a new NIC, etc and let you know what I find.
Thanks,
Ben

H55m-E23 onboard lan doesnt work

i have an h55m-e23 mother board and the on board LAN stop working after 12 hrs. id looked in the bios to make sure that it was enabled and it was. i also tried to reinstall the drivers for it but it said that the device can not be found. is there anything else i could try.
my computer specs are as followed:
atx power up mid tower case
Intel i3-540 (3.6ghz)
4GB ddr3 ram
450w PSU
msi h55m-e23 mobo

When you said the LAN stopped working, does the LEDs on the LAN port still blinks?
Is the Ethernet LAN Connection still detected in Network connections? How about Device Manager, is the LAN chip being detected?

MSI H55M-E23 Mother Board is it compatible with Usb 3.0?

Just curios if the MSI H55M-E23 Mother Board is it compatible with Usb 3.0?
Thank you!

if you are asking if its able to use a USB 3.0 Device then the answer is yes but it will operate at USB2.0 speeds only on the ports as they are only USB 2.0 ports and USB 3.0 devices are backward compatible and can be used on USB 1.0a and USB 2.0 ports but will work only at the USB revision speed its connected to!

H55m-E23 bsod after installing graphics drivers

Hi,
Was wondering if anyone else had had a similar problem. Just built a system with a h55m-e23 mobo, i3-540 cpu and 4gb value ram. System works fine, will run for hours no problem, until i install the gfx driver for the onboard gfx. I have tried a pci-e card as well, same problem. As soon as drivers are installed bsod on next restart. I have tried win 7 32 and 64 bit, with all updates and without, with 1 stick of ram and 2 etc. have ran memtest it says all fine. Once it bsod, all i can do is go into safe mode. If i remove hd driver then it works fine, but obviously this isnt a suitable solution. psu is new, 450w, should be enough for mobo, cpu 1hdd and 1 dvd i would hope. Have tried drivers from disk that came with it, from windows update etc, exactly the same problem.
thanks in advance.

H55m-e23 not detecting video card

Hello i recently upgraded my pc with new video card (asus engtx570 directcu ii gtx 570) the problem is that main board(MSI H55M-E23) is not detecting video card, so here is what happens when i turn the pc on it starts to beep 1long beep and 2 short beeps. First i thought it might be power suply so i bought new power suply with 700w and still the same thing happens, then i tryed with LC850w and same thing so i guess the power supply is not the problem. I removed rams and tryed with 1 stick, i have 4 different sticks and same thing happened with each stick. i tested the videocard on different mainboard (ASUS P5Q PRO and ASUS P8H67-M PRO REV. 3.0) and videocard worked fine. i tested my mainboard H55M-E23 with sapphire ATI HD 6950 and it worked too so the pci slot is ok, and now i dont know what to do more i tested all things possible. So what is the problem? my mainboard does not want to detect videocard (asus engtx570 directcu ii gtx 570) 3beeps ( 1long and 2 short) PLEASE HELP!

Windows 7/8.0/8.1 NIC teaming issue

Hello,
I'm having an issue with Teaming network adapters in all recent Windows client OSs.
I'm using Intel Pro Dual Port or Broadcom NetExtreme II GigaBit adapters with the appropriate drivers/applications from the vendors.
I am able to set up teaming and fail-over works flawlessly, but the connection will not use the entire advertised bandwidth of 2Gbps. Basically it will use either one port or the other.
I'm doing the testing with the iperf tool and am communicating with a unix based server.
I have the following setup:
Dell R210 II server with 2 Broadcom NetEtreme II adapters and a DualPort Intel Pro adapter - Centos 6.5 installed bonding configured and working wile communicating with other unix based systems.
Zyxel GS2200-48 switch - Link Aggregation configured and working
Dell R210 II with Windows 8.1 with Broadcom NetExtreme II cards or Intel Pro dualport cards.
For the Windows machine I have also tried Windows 7 and Windows 8, also non server type hardware with identical results.
so.. Why am I not getting > 1 Gbps throughput on the created team? although load balancing is activated, team adapter says the connection type is 2 Gbps, a the same setup with 2 unix machines works flawlessly.
Am I to understand that Link Aggregation (802.3ad) under Microsoft OS does not support load balancing if connection is only towards one IP?
To make it clear, I need client version of Windows OS to communicate unix based OS over a higher then 1Gbps bandwidth (as close to 2 Gbps as possible). Without the use of 10 Gbps network adapters.
Thanks in advance,
Endre

As v-yamliu has mentioned, NIC teaming through the operating system is
only available in Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2. For Windows Client or for previous versions of Windows Server you will need to create the team via the network driver. For Broadcom this is accomplished
using the Broadcom Advanced Server Program (BASP) as documented here and
for Intel via Advanced Network Services as documented here.
If you have configured the team via the drivers, you may need to ensure the driver is properly installed and updated. You may also want to ensure that the adapters are configured for aggregation (802.3ad/802.1ax/LACP), rather than fault tolerance or load
balancing and that the teaming configuration on the switch matches and is compatible with the server configuration. Also ensure that all of the links are connecting at full duplex as this is a requirement.

Windows Server 2012 R2 - Hyper-V NIC Teaming Issue

Hi All,
I have cluster windows server 2012 R2 with hyper-v role installed. I have an issue with one of my windows 2012 R2 hyper-v host.
The virtual machine network adapter show status connected but it stop transmit data, so the vm that using that NIC cannot connect to external network.
The virtual machine network adapter using Teamed NIC, with this configuration:
Teaming Mode : Switch Independent
Load Balance Algorithm : Hyper-V Port
NIC Adapter : Broadcom 5720 Quad Port 1Gbps
I already using the latest NIC driver from broadcom.
I found a little trick for this issue by disable one of the teamed NIC, but it will happen again.
Anyone have the same issue with me, and any workaround for this issue?
Please Advise
Thanks,

Windows 2008 R2 iSCSI Boot LUN - NIC driver issue

Hello,
I've gotten the opportunity to create a win2k8r2 golden image that will be deployed to IBM3650 M3's over
iSCSI boot LUNs. I have a need to update the on-board Broadcom 1Gb NICs from the drivers that come with the installation media. I am able to load the drivers that I need without any issue, the system survives multiple re-boots and displays the expected driver
version via device manager. After I prepare the image I run sysprep, sysprep runs smoothly and the system shuts down as expected. At this point I unmap the existing LUN and clone the sysprep'ed image out.
This is where I run into trouble, if I update to the latest Broadcom driver the OS fails to boot, the host
logs into the LUN successfully and I get the Windows splash screen after a bit the screen goes black and I get no response from windows at all. With this behavior I would generally expect that there is some issue with my unattend file but if I don't upgrade
the driver there are no problems, windows boots normally, and the post install process runs successfully. After some digging I saw that I might be running into KB974072. Just as the article suggested I inserted the necessary drivers into the installation
media. Unfortunately this produced the same result.
I've got PersistAllDeviceInstalls set to "true" in the generalize pass of the unattend so sysprep
should not be making any changes to the drivers. If anyone has any ideas on what else, if anything, I can put in the unattend to get sysprep to leave the drivers alone or any thoughts on this issue at all I would greatly appreciate it!
Regards,
Toll_Hou5e

Hi,
First, try to set the registry key before capture the image.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\Sysprep\Settings\sppnp set
PersistAllDeviceInstalls to
1.
If it doesn’t work, we can try another to way, inject driver packet during installation.

Hyper-V host 1Gbps NIC negotiated at 100 Mbps when used for Virtual Switch

Hi all,
Hoping someone can shed some light on this one as I’ve been trying to hunt down a solution for a week now.
Setup
HP ProLiant ML350 G6 with HP NC326i PCIe Dual Port Gigabit Server Adapter network adapters
Windows Server 2008 R2 Core with only the Hyper-V role installed
SBS 2011 installed as guest
Port 1 on Dual port NIC configured a physical port or management of Host only
Port 2 on Dual port NIC configured for use as an External Virtual Switch port for use by guests only
The issue is that the physical port connected to the Hyper-V virtual Switch negotiates with the network switch at 100 Mbps full duplex while the management port negotiates at 1 Gbps full duplex. All clients (brand new HP Z210 workstations) also negotiate
with the switch at 1 Gbps.
During file copies and backups the network port connected to the Virtual Switch does not show any errors and transfers data at close to 100 Mbps. File transfers between individual workstations and workstations and server core again show no errors, but transfers
at 1 Gbps.
One observation is that the physical NIC connected to the Virtual Switch does not negotiate with the switch until the Hyper-V service has started (I’m guessing) the virtual switch.
Also, while staging the server the Hyper-V virtual switch created when the server was connected to a 100 Mbps switch not a 1Gbps switch as it is in production.
Has anyone encountered anything similar and if so how did you get the physical NIC to operate at full capabilities? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I purchased one gigabyte switch for home used several days ago, I just performed some copy tests between virtual machines and physical machines(not
Hyper-V host machine)in the same LAN, the average copy speed is 350Mb/s.
Best Regards,
Vincent Hu

MSI NIC DRIVER ISSUES

Hi
I am having issues trying to get the drivers for the REATEK GBE/FE NIC using SCCM sp2 R1 to an MSI AIO. (MSI -AE2081) with the target OS being XPSP3
The Drivers will install manually using the setup.exe but when I take the appropriate drivers and INF file, and create a driver package added to the task sequence, I see SCCM copying them and adding them to the UPnP path, but they are not installed after a system reboot.
The drivers are taken from the following link..
ftp -ftp2 - msi - com - AE2081 - XP
In addition to downloading all drivers at this location, I have gone to the Vendors Website (RealTek) and using both the links for the PCIe GBE and PCIe FE family of drivers, taken the XP drivers.
I have taken all drivers for the Server, Workstation and AIO NIC’s.
None of these seem to be the correct driver. This assumption is based on SCCM not installing them using the PnP manager as described above.
I know XP is EOL but XP is the preferred system OS.
This issue is not in the PXE stage but post WIM being applied on first system reboot.
Has anyone seen this before or have a suggestion as to what I am doing incorrectly?

What does the rest of your system consist of ?
Have you used driver sweeper to remove all drivers first ? http://www.guru3d.com/content-page/guru3d-driver-sweeper.html

Content negotiation issues

I'm using content negotiation to deliver a website automatically in the matching language. So far, anything is working well, except that sometimes it will not detect the correct language, although the same is working on other pages of the same website using the same method.
For example:
www.mysite.tld/Assistance/index.var
www.mysite.tld/Assistance/index_de.html -> German version
www.mysite.tld/Assistance/index_en.html -> English version
The page is accessed with www.mysite.tld/Assistance/ in the webbrowser and set to open the index.var file, which contains:
URI: index_de.html
Content-type: text/html
Content-language: de
URI: index_en.html
Content-type: text/html
Content-language: en
URI: index_en.html
Content-type: text/html
Do you have an idea where a problem could be ?

Found the problem by myself:
If there are several files set up for the server to choose from, like index.var, index.html, etc. this does not work. When all possible file types are removed and only index.var is left, it works.

H55M-E23 low sound quality

Hello.I have this serious problem with my sound card.I have these rly awesome headphones and when i listen music the quality of the songs is realy low.I used the same headphones on my brother's laptop and the difference is amazing...... i can hear every instrument used in the recording of the song.While im on my own its super normal even low quality.I wana know guys is there a way to improve my quality with codecs or something else.I already downloaded the latest driver and its still the same.Is there anyway or should i buy a new and better sound card.Hope to hear from you soon.Thank you.

Did you try disconnecting the front connectors and see if it sounds better?
Try plugging the comp into a different room. *Perhaps the ground on that circuit of the house is messed up
Perhaps even remove the motherboard and put it on a piece of cardboard and test it there. *make sure there are no shorts
Has it always been like this, or is this new?
Is everything else working 100% with the comp?
You could check the memory with: >>Memtest86<< although I don't think thats the issue.
*other things that can cause.
1.)Software Issue or conflict (I usually just re-install the OS to rule this out)
2.) Interferance from another electrical applicance too close to the computer.
3.) bad electrical ground
4.) Hardware Failure

FAST ETHERNET NEGOTIATION ISSUE

Hi Guys,
One of our WAAS device is directly connected to service provider router directly(there is medium in middile), whenever we see the interface status at provider end device we found the duplex setting as half duplex/100 Mbps but though there is no drops between the devices . But we are facing general slowness in our network .While disable the WAAS its getting solve, Kindly suggest why the duplex is showing mismatch on two sides. Also is this affecting our performance issue ? is there any best practice ?

If you have your side set to auto and the provider side is hard coded to 100/full, you will negotiate at 100/half. You'd need to hard code your side to 100/full to see full duplex.
HTH,
John

SRW208P RSTP Root Negotiation Issue - switches shipping after 4/19/10?

Hi all,
We have configured hundreds of SRW208P switches, with the below hardware and software versions, using a canned configuration we developed long ago. Three weeks ago we placed an order for 4 of them (all same versions as below) and found when we loaded our canned configuration, they all dropped off the air. After further investigation, we pinpointed the issue to Rapid Spanning Tree mode settings. At the instant we set the SRW208P's bridge priority to the same priority as the connecting switch (SRW2048G4P--same switch and RSTP priority we have used for all prior configuration) the SRW208P drops off the network. Console continues to work fine.
Boot Version:          1.0.1 (Date: 06-Jun-2006, Time: 17:23:21)
Software Version:      1.0.4 (Date: 06-Sep-2007, Time: 09:11:40)
Hardware Version:      00.03.00
Has anybody else had something like this happen recently? We worked around the issue by creating a new canned configuration with SRW208P RSTP root priority to something different from the SRW248G4P, but, I'm wondering if this is a faulty chip series or something like that.
Regards,
lamorrell

Thank you Andrew for the response.
We haven't upgraded the software on the SRW208P switches as they have been shipping with the latest firmware, 1.0.4. As a precaution, I grabbed the current image off Cisco and uploaded it to the switch. The switch shows the same version and create date as indicated in my original post, so this confirms the Software version we are running is the latest code.
We are running the following versions on the SRW248G4P switch.
Boot Version:         1.0.1
Software Version:     1.0.2
Loader Version:       1.0.1
Hardware Version:     R01
I know there's a newer 1.3.1.0 software version out there. Since the problem seems to follow the "new" SRW208P switches I am dubious about a 248G4P upgrade. We will probably do the upgrade eventually.
I'm attaching the config files for the SRW208P and SRW248G4P switches. If you want to load these, the 48-port config requires that you enter the switch's base mac in two places near the top of the text file (replace "put-MAC-here" with hardware MAC address of target switch using xx-xx-xx-xx-xx format). The RSTP priority in this config has been modified to 12288, which works fine with the 208P default STP settings.
The 208P configuration is the factory default with these modifications: IP address, mask, and gateway, and the Spanning Tree type and priority are RSTP 16384.
If you want to see the failure, you will need to set the priority on both switches to the same value, so, for example, 16384. I did an experiment this morning where I set them both to 16384, then changed the 248G4P RSTP priority to 12288. I then was able to access the 208P Web portal log--there was only one entry regarding spanning tree:
3   2147483643   01-Jan-2000 01:55:23    Warning   %STP-W-PORTSTATUS: g2: STP status Forwarding
These are the log messages from the 248G4P (fa3 on the 248G4P switch connects to g2 on the 208p):
