Chelsio S320 windows blue screen!

[John M.]

Does anyone know if these legacy cards work under windows 10?

I use them on OSX and they work flawlessly.

But looking to move to windows.

When booting in win10 i managed to install them using the drivers on the chelsio site.

The card is being recognised. It has an IP and is connected to the server.

As soon and I browse to the freenas web interface the whole thing blue screens and reboots.

I get some sort of driver error I think....

Any help would be much appreciated!

Are you updating the driver?

 

[John M.]

No I'm using the driver provide by chelsio, the v1.5.13.46.

But it's dated 2010 and the last supported version of windows seems Windows 2008-R2.

But I see many people on the forum using this card, so I'm wondering how they do it...

Firmware is also up to date?

 

[John M.]

I got 1.2.4b2

I updated it a couple of years ago, should this be changed?

The latest High Sierra firmware is t3fw-7.12.0.

Kind of hesitating since I don't want to break things on OSX. I'm only dipping my toes in win10 whith dual booting...

Hmm, chelsio list v7.11.0 as the latest firmware for the s320e-cr.

 

[John M.]

Yeah I downloaded t3fw-7.12.0 from the chelsio website. Is included in the OSX driver.

But 1.2.4b2 seems to be the driver version or something. (on osx)

I can use cxgbtool to update the firmware but I can't seem to figure out how to display the current loaded firmware.

Any command line suggestions?

Got these commands at my disposal:

    context <type> <id>                 show an SGE context

    lro on|off                          enable/disable lro for all queues
    mdio <phy_addr> <mmd_addr>
         <reg_addr> [<val>]             read/write MDIO register
    meminfo                             show memory info
    pktsched port <idx> <min> <max>     set TX port scheduler params

    qdesc  <type> <qid> <idx> [<cnt>]   read SGE descriptors
    qset                                read qset parameters
    qsets                               read # of qsets
    reg <address>[=<val>]               read/write register
