 Hi all!
Sorry to disappoint you, but I doubt that the SSD 5.50
is the problem. I have customers running NW 6.1.1 and
SSD 5.50 without problems. As long as you update the
NIC agent to version 5.50.1.0 you shouldn't have any
problems with SSD 5.50. Even the 3.63.363 version of
the Compaq Gbit NIC driver is working. And trust me,
I've seen all the problems with older versions!

On the other hand, maybe this is related to SP3?
