Motherboard Huananzhi X99-TF ATX
Realtech on board network card.
I’m using this board because my Asus board failed and I felt that the CPU and RAM were both fine, at least I hoped. Assembled the new board, the only one available that I could find, and everything loaded as before, and all tests on cpu and memory tested fine. NIC works fine and connects to the internet and my Synology, no problems.
Ran backup tasks on this and several other computers, Synology healthy. I ordered some fresh USB 32 gig sticks and started the Recovery Media Creator on another computer. Made two copies and both tested just fine, booted to the Synology and, even though I didn’t complete the process, I took it to the last step.
Tried both sticks in the above board and both failed, so I made two more USB sticks on the above MOBO, in case that was the problem, both failed.
When I pound F11 for the boot menu and choose, UEFI: USB Disk 2.0 PMAP, Partition 1,
it boots to the Synology menu but won’t connect to the DS720+, with the error: Failed to connect to the server, please check your internet connection and try again. When I fill in the numbers manually I get the same result. If I go to the command line window, I can’t ping anything. It seems that no NIC driver has loaded. I downloaded a newer ver. of the Win10 Realtek driver for this MOBO. I created another usb media. Still no Joy. Copied the new Realtek Lan folder to the USB stick booted the USB and loaded it manually from within the Synology Restore media and all is well, connected to the DS720+ and restore is available.
I’m sure it this problem has to do with me swapping MOBO’s..
Don’t know how to automate the process on this particular machine any further.
Comments welcome, or if this helps anyone, always test…
