Removing the Device Drivers
When removing the device drivers, any management application that is installed is
also removed.
To remove the device drivers:
1. In the Control Panel, double-click Add or Remove Programs.
2. Click QLogic Drivers and Management Applications, and then click
Remove. Follow the on-screen prompts.
3. Reboot your system to completely remove the drivers. If you fail to reboot
your system, you cannot successfully install the drivers.
Viewing or Changing the Properties of the
Adapter
To view or change the properties of a QLogic network adapter:
1. In the Control Panel, click QLogic Control Suite.
2. Click the Advanced section of the Configurations page.
Setting Power Management Options
You can set power management options to allow the operating system to turn off
the controller to save power or to allow the controller to wake up the computer. If
the device is busy doing something (servicing a call, for example) however, the
operating system will not shut down the device. The operating system attempts to
shut down every possible device only when the computer attempts to go into
hibernation.
NOTE
Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 provide the Device
Driver Rollback feature to replace a device driver with one that was
previously installed. However, the complex software architecture of the
BCM57xx and BCM57xxx device may present problems if the rollback
feature is used on one of the individual components. Therefore, QLogic
recommends that you make changes to the driver versions only through the
use of a driver installer.
