Yeah, I was keeping that in my back pocket if no download method was
forthcoming...

 

I was also thinking "repair install" now known as "repair in place" which
seems to be an option - anyone done a "repair in place" installation of 2008
R2 Core or Hyper-V R2 and not regretted it?

See if you can get the driver files from a Win7 box, and then use DEVCON to
install them on your Hyper-V R2 box.

I had a management NIC fail in a Hyper-V R2 server.  Not having an equivalent

Is my only choice to make this work to re-install Hyper-V R2 from scratch?
It seems if I simply had the driver files I could install them with DEVCON.
The only ones I can find online are XP 64-bit drivers from 2005, which devcon
fails to install.

 

Thanks,
