Thank you for your helps.
- We understand ND binaries and others are not always updated at the same time.
- Ibscan.bat and Ibcleanup.bat help us very much.
With these files, we have succeeded uninstalling WinOF_2-0_wlh_x64.zip(v2.0_rc2) and then installing WinIB-ND v1.4.1(from mellanox.com).
- When we run IBcleanup.bat, we sometimes(2 cases for 5 systems) get messages which means "Access denied".
In this case, we have to reboot and re-run IBcleanup.bat.
