Title: Dual LAN causes Blue Screen
Post by: St_Vitruvius on April 17, 2011, 01:38:32 pm
My motherboard is a GA-X58A-UD7 with dual LAN.

But using dual LAN causes the computer to terminate in a BSOD.

Any suggestion on what might be the problem?

I'm trying to establish a LAN connection on which I use onoe of the Gb ports to transfer data between devices, ex. my pc and a NAS, and the other for downloading or playing games ect.

I am not 100% sure but I don't think you can run two seperate LANs at the same time. You can run both LAN connections teamed which is different but you need compliant hardware for that anyway. :-\

But how do I get it to work? More because I'm interested than because I need it...

Hi

If you look at page 87 of your manual it gives instructions on how to do it. ;)

Ya, you can't use it like you are trying, it's not designed for that at all.

It's designed for teaming, which you need a special router and two separate incoming lines from your ISP (Or via intranet, with special router)

Here's some more info on this
