Hello I hope I can get some help with my problem I have the Intel(R) Thernet Connection (7) I219-V so like yours and then I downloaded the Intel Ethernet Preboot 28.3 version like you did for windows and I ran the CMD in admin, entered the file location and removed the ethernet cable, when I tried to run the install.bat I got "Aborting installation because driver already exists. Run install /y to override! To Exit, Press any key to continue..."
im lost, i feel you need to elaborate way more for me to get a better understanding in command prompt, like what do i need to type?, i moved those installs to another folder and now im lost
I'm working with an Intel(R) Ethernet Controller (3) I225-V and I've installed the latest PREBOOT.zip. Whenever I open cmd as admin to change the directory to the installed Winx64 folder to install the .bat file it mentions that it aborted the installation because the driver already exists yet it's still showing code 10 even after system restart. Following up with bootutilw64e.exe -nic=1 -defcfg and/or -all -defcfg yeilds: 1 (Cannot initialize adapter) is there anything else I can try to do?
Did it, the INF installed successfully, but then I got "Cannot initialize adapter" when executing Bootutilw64e ... It's definitely not physically broken, it worked fine until I made a clean reinstall of Windows.
@@izzylie Hey, thanks for the reply. It wasn't, but I solved the problem in a different way. It seems the newest build of the driver (29.2.1) was faulty. As soon as I went back to 28.3 (the latest of the 28.x builds), it worked fine.
thank you for your video. I navigated all of your steps successfully, with no errors, and the fix is not working. I have also now tried uninstalling the ethernet adapter, and following up with scanning for hardware changes. I tried doing this both before and after rebooting, with no success. I have an intel i219-LM ethernet adapter. do you have any advice? perhaps I could obtain somewhere a working firmware image for this network adaptor?
@@izzylie thank you for your suggestion. I have not used ubuntu before, is it an entirely new operating system to replace windows? how is it relevant here specifically?
@@izzylie I ran another update cycle, and somehow this cycle fixed the problem. possibly because I did it after all the fixes you recommended. I am grateful for your help!! :)
I get a "Setting PXE EEPROM words back to defaults on NIC 1...error Unable to write default configuration to EEPROM" error when I run bootutilw64e.exe with either the -NIC=1 flag OR the -all flag.
@@izzylie done it bunch of times already, searched online and found someone says that it has to do with secure boot, tried disabling and re-enabling it back and forth but still not working
Actually, after that I uninstalled the device from Device Manager, used Scan for New Hardware, ran the bootutilw64e.exe command again and it worked like a charm. Rebooted, plugged the ethernet cable back in and bam, worked. You're a life saver!
It's crazy how you explaining that you don't want to explain how to enter in things into CMD because it's basic computer literacy took longer than if you would've just told people following along put cd first then space and copy the path. And even in the comments you're still telling people to look it up instead of just helping them. Like why even make this video to help people if you're going to be a dick about the little things too. lol
because the topic of this video is how to re-flash an ethernet adapter nand, not how to use command prompt. by that logic I should also show how to install a browser, connect to internet, download files and unpack them. if you are eager to learn basic computer literacy, there are plenty of instructional videos online, i guess after a couple hour long videos and a few weeks of doing everything through cmd you will familiarize yourself enough to understand how it actually works, not just parrot the command you see on-screen and having no clue what went wrong if you mistype something. but I appreciate my viewers time and will not waste it on something they most probably already know. this is not kindergarten, educate yourself
@@izzylie I already knew how to use CMD, still though I see people in the comments asking and it really isn't that hard to answer them you're literally just going out of your way to be a asshole about it. Why even make a tutorial video to help people if you're going to be gatekeep simple instructions you easily could've included in the video without making it any longer by 30 seconds? You just had to say what you're doing so people can copy you. But you are actually just being a asshole about it for no reason. It's a bad look and you just seem really petty for no valid reason.
@@izzylie lol you removed my comment cause you know im right, you're legit being petty in the video and in the comments for absolutely no reason. Almost like a weird superiority complex? good video though just sucks you have such a bad personality.
Which comment exactly, I have 3 of yours in this thread so far? I strongly believe that stupidity of everyone has to be publicly displayed, and that's why I never remove comments, I actually had to extract yours from spam where they go automatically, so everyone can behold. You may think what you want, but the idea behind my solution videos is to personally test if a proposed solution works or not, and showcase that. not educate on what I consider basic PC knowledge. RU-vid is not made for kids, and I'm not holding anyone by the hand to make baby steps. You are free to make your own videos though, educate on CMD ot whatever. Good luck.
