The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Struggling to delete phantom Hyper-V virtual NICS left behind in Server 2008

Asked by lukeglazebrook in Hyper-V, Network Cards & Adapters, Windows Server 2008

I am in desparete need of help, and am experiencing a great deal of emotional stress in relation to the following ;(

In an effort to resolve...

http://www.experts-exchange.com/Microsoft/Applications/Virtual_Server/Hyper-V/Q_24778073.html

I wish to delete multiple phantom NICS that were created by Hyper-V.  Hyper-V evidently has not deleted them as it should have (see screen shot highlighting the non-existing NICS).  I have tried the following with no success....

- Resetting the TCPIP stack via the auto tool found here ...
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/299357

- Using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/269155 I tried removing using "Method 1" unfortunately with "method 1" even though I ran cmd.exe as an admin when I right click and un-install nothing actually seems to happen.  

- When I try using "method 2" bizarrely the 64bit version of "DEVCON" produces the following when run...

"This version of C:\devcon\devcon.exe is not compatible with the version of Window
s you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you n
eed a x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the
software publisher."

And although I can get the 32bit version to work if I try to run the command to remove the unwanted virtual NIC I get a failure message (see attached).  Would someone kindly take a look at my syntax I probably screwed up :(

I am now at the stage where I would be happy to risk deleting them straight out of the registry if I could confidentally identify them and had some guidance.  Strangely when I tried to open the registry "config" folder I believe relates to the configuration of ome of the virtual NICS it states access denied.  I dont however get access denied to several some others.
