Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,

 

I have a very specific issue when I enable SVM on this PC. When I go into the HP UEFI BIOS menu, and check the box labeled "SVM CPU Virtualization" and reboot into Windows 10, my "Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet Plus" shows as "Network Cable Unplugged" even though the network cable is still plugged in. In fact the NIC lights at the back of the computer are flashing, and the lights on the switch it is plugged into are flashing.

 

The only thing that changes is that I am enabling SVM. If I disable SVM, the NIC works great.

 

I have the latest UEFI/BIOS version and the latest Broadcom NIC drivers from the HP support site. (UEFI P09 2.17 and Broadcom 214.0.0.0)

 

If someone can reproduce this, that would be great.
