Their network card is BroadCom NetXtreem gigabit nic, driver version is 7.100.0.0. They started receiving ystem hang after applying SP2, we asked them to apply a patch published by microsoft on Aug 6, 2007(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936594). Problem still exists. is it because of the Network adapter driver being old and not supporting the Offload. We changed the REg files as follows and did not get any issues inhouse but VPN conenctivity is lost. "EnableRSS"=dword:00000000 "EnableTCPA"=dword:00000000 "EnableTCPChimney"=dword:00000000 "DisableTaskOffload"=dword:00000001 any help is apprecieated. thanks -abhinaw We are having a clinet using Win 2003 Server SP2.
