Intel can eat a bag of dicks. Here is the driver you need to run Server 2012 on the i217-V chipset.
For some reason they released the i217-V (desktop) and i217-LM (server) versions of their gigabit ethernet chip. They are the same chip. The only difference is that the -V has support for Win7, Win8 and -LM has support for WS2008, WS2012, i.e. desktop drivers and server drivers. The idea is that you can’t run Windows server OS’es on desktop hardware and you will buy the server hardware instead. You should probably do this if you’re a business so that you have official support and your boss won’t fire you. If you’re a home user/hobbyist, you’re going to want your hardware to work with your OS. So let’s fix that.
So we’re going to move some lines around in the config file (.ini) and comment out others. I’ve already done this, you are ready to go. This should work with any H87 or Z87 chipset motherboard with the i217-V gigabit ethernet chipset/network chip.
You can ( download the file(s) here. 8.4MB zip file ).
This only works for WS2012 and Hyper-V Server 2012 (and the R2 versions). NDIS63 folder is for Windows 8/2012, NDIS62 is for Windows 7/2008 R2 and NDIS61 is for Windows Vista/2008, but the same concept applies there too.

Run these commands -AS ADMINISTRATOR- from the command line to disable driver integrity checks (this lets you sneak past intel’s bullshit)
Full post under the cut~
bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON
Run the installer in APPS\SETUP\SETUPBD\Winx64\ which is SetupBD.exe and then restart the machine. It will probably warn you about installing non-standard drivers, go ahead anyways.
Reboot. It should work now. Note: This did not work for me immediately. I had to run APPS\PROSETDX\Winx64\DxSetup.exe first, then run setupbd.exe to get the warning message to pop up. If you don’t get the pop up message to display, your drivers did not actually install. Yes, this is very hacky. But it works. Good luck.
You should probably turn back on integrity checks to keep things clean, but it’s not required:
bcdedit -set loadoptions ENABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING OFF

trying for hours now to get my server running without success.
tried this method manuel changing the files and plex’s tool but none helped
motherboard; asus z97i-plus which i believe has a I218V intel chip
trying to install windows sbs which is based on 2k8 r2.
anny suggestions would be apreciated, will post if i manage to fix it
after some more time i found a fix that seemed to work.
problem was that inf edits here weren’t for i218v but i217v
below a direct copy of post i found that fixed it for me;
I used ASROCK Z97 with windows 2008 r2 but i can’t found driver intel lan 1218 V . when i am read this website i found code for fix it in Pro1000——->WIN64——->NDIS62 folder .In the line e1d62x64.inf .You can edit code for fix %E15A1NC.DeviceDesc% = E15A1.6.1.1, PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_15A1
%E15A1NC.DeviceDesc% = E15A1.6.1.1, PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_15A1&SUBSYS_00008086

hello people here is an improved version of my nic enablers for download. I would be very happy about feedback.
Download here!
Thanks buddy.
Hi Plex
Can you leave some contact info, and/or the github repository? Thanks so much for writing this app, but it would also be good to review the code. Once I have a chance to look it over I would like to write a new post about your software and link to it, as this post gets a lot of hits/views, and I’d like to give your app wider exposure.
Thanks!
Hey Admin,Guys!
Feel free to review and write an article about the tool, i think it might be useful and easy to handle for many peoples.
Heres the brand new GitHub Repo:

I have an ASRock Z97Extreme4 and I had a HELL of a time with this. I tried everything in this thread. I disabled the signing, then I tried the app NICEnabler…no luck.
I believe this is how I got mine to work for future readers:
I have the i218-LM LAN in my z97. I went into the e1d64x64.inf and copy/pasted the following (overwriting whatever was in there. NOT adding it)

Once that was done, I saved it. I ran the intel setup. It said COMPLETED. No change. I then went into the device manager, went into the ethernet properties and manually pointed to the e1d64x64.inf file. When thats done it gives you a list of a ton of different NIC’s. I used the i218-LM driver and BOOM it just magically worked.
Not sure if it was a combination of efforts, so take the above with a grain of salt. Server 2012 Standard by the way.
I tried the NIC Enabler and it worked great for ASUS Maximus VII Hero mainboard and Windows 2012 R2. I couldn’t get the original guide to work. Thanks!

Updated the unknown Ethernet Controller by manually pointing to the fixed inf. It now works.
This works great on my Asus Z87-expert with Windows 2012 R2. Thanks a lot!!!
Hi, Bought a ASUS X99-S with Intel I7 5630, the keyboard cease to function once I landed in the desktop, I restarted the machine but mouse and keyboard doesnt work….. I was not able to load drivers, so I’ stuck big time…. any other with the same issue?
Hi Again, for some reason they work after 5 minutes, but now I don’t have the NIC drivers…. I have the i218-LM LAN
Yes I DID IT hohohoho!!!!!!
Excellent – worked for me on a Gigabyte H97N motherboard. Note that the first reboot was required after the command were performed. Then the install of the drivers worked. So 1) run the commands as admin 2) reboot 3) run the install.
Thanks so much for this!
Thank you. Eat a bag of Dicks Intel!

Download the exe and install it. Use the drivers in NDIS61 and select 82577LM.

This whole situation is pretty crappy. I can’t believe Itel is not supporting any and all of the OS’s. This should be a little more clear in the documentation for these new boards. Anyway, my bitching about will probably not do anything to change things. I tried the app that was mentioned in this thread, didn’t work for me, and after the hours spent researching and finding this solution, I actually have found a much simpler solution. I had a old PCI Gigabit NIC card I installed and Viola, all is good again. I believe the chipset is Realtek. My WHS 2011 is working again. Thankfully the AsRock Z97 board still has PCI slots. So, step away from the CMD Prompt and just install a separate card, they are super cheap!!
This guide is a life-saver. Managed to get the i217-v working with the Hyper-V Server 2012 R2.
Hi!!!
I’m trying to modify the .inf for Intel Compute MFS5520VI MODULE. There 82575EB network card (Hardware ID PCI \ VEN_8086 & DEV_10A7)
Could you help me with the correct file modification? I’ve found that the 10A7 in the file e1q63x64 (19_5_CD – installation package)
After modifying the Windows Server 2012R2 displays a message that the driver is not this version.

Used the instructions from Plex and NicEnabler, worked perfect!
on ASRock Extreme6 Z97
Thank you Plex!
Thank you so much, you’ve ended hours of pure misery!
bARRY, I have the X99 UD5 Wifi – gonna try your method…however I think I just fried my 1218-V….luckily this board is dual NIC if I cant get it to work
This is a unbelievable situation and I can’t believe Intel did this.
I have used NicEnabler 7 months ago on my new Asus Z-97 Deluxe motherboard to install Windows Server 2012 R2… and it helped me a lot.
Now, I have to use it to be able to deploy HP Z440 using MDT or SCCM…
Intel : please, don’t become as crappy as Toshiba regarding drivers. PLEASE.
Thanks alot man! I just got a board with this NIC on it and finally you could help me out! Again, thanks!!!
@bARRY I also have a Gigabyte X99 UD4 but your solution isn’t working here.
1. I’ve downloaded the i218-V version of the standard device drivers from:
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/downloads/eula/23073/Network-Adapter-Driver-for-Windows-Server-2012-R2-?httpDown=http%3A%2F%2Fdownloadmirror.intel.com%2F23073%2Feng%2FPROWinx64.exe
2. Then I updated file e1d64x64.inf as you posted.
3. I used the instructions above to install the drivers.
Did you do anything else to get this working?
Hey I got a gigabyte x99 ud4 motherboard too. Trying to install windows server 2012. Could you guys run me through the fix again please? Thanks!
I have an Intel NUC Model NUCi7RYH
Does anyone have a solution for getting the Network Card to work under Server 2012 R2 ?
I’ve tried everything above and nothing seems to work.
Your help is appreciated.
Dan
that was really helpful, thanks a lot
if this could help anyone here, i needed to run setupBD.exe twice with restart in between , then all is fine
thanks again
installing windows server2012 r2 with sp2 on Gigabyte GA-Z97-D3H
This worked for me! Have an ASUS H87I-Plus MoBo that I wanted to install Windows Server 2012 R2 on and now I have a working Ethernet adapter.
My backup workaround option I was half afraid I’d have to go with was using a USB 3.0 to Ethernet adapter if I wasn’t able to get the on-board NIC to work.
Thanks for your work!
excellent, found the files and problem description at other sites, but this little zip gave me a working inf that installed just fine – server 2012 r2 essentials
as ever, THANKS
Thanks very much!!!

that works for me
mobo gygabyte GA-Z97-D3h
Thanks a lot
Perfect, man! Thank you very much from Brazil!
PLEX your tool is AWESOME. Thanks so much for taking the time to create it!
Hi Thanks for the help, its works for me.
THANKS !
I gave up installing Windows 2008/12 on my H87 home ‘server’ because i couldn’t make the NIC work – so i reverted to Windows 7 + Vmware Workstation..
With this driver i can finally upgrade to 2012R2 and maybe begin using HyperV
how about mobo Asrock Z87 pro 4 ?
please help…
i’m posting coz it almost made me cry that i couldn’t get it working
okay here’s what worked for me
i have asus x99 pro
i wanted it to work with windows server 2008 r2 but couldn’t and gave up.
so i moved to 2012 r2
i tried the nic enabler. didn’t work by doing just the instructions but it think it made a significant contribution by changing the inf files.
after running the nic enabler i tried again by pointing the driver to i218 LM
and it worked. found the nic and i got a network adapter. =)
