<P class=MsoNormal>Goodpeople,<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Before recommending use of the WinOF_1-1_x64.msi installer to
a customer, I tried it on a Windows Server 2003 test system. This system does
not have an HCA installed. I just wanted to see if the installer
worked.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Do I need an HCA for this installer to run?<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The error message was: HCA Install failed – mthca.inf
PCI\WEN_15B3&DEV_*<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p><SPAN class=587074217-22052008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>At the WinOF 1.1 juncture, software only installs are not
yet supported as devcon.exe is the install tool.</FONT></SPAN></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p><SPAN class=587074217-22052008><FONT face=Arial

Windows Server 2008 & Vista, software only installs will be supported via
dpinst.exe.</FONT></SPAN></o:p></P>
