Good morning people.
I have an ONE BIG problem.
I just buy a new server with new intel mainboard s2600wtt.
When start the installation of esxi 5.5 u2, acpi module freeze, and the server restart.
I called the technical assistance of INTEL, but now, i doesn't have resolution.
Any idea?
Thank you.
Sorry for my bad english

Did you confirm the Motherboard on VMware's Hardware Compatability List?
Andrea ,
Please check if you using the compatible model of hardware to install esxi .
VMware Compatibility Guide: System Search
Also try the steps mentioned in the below thread.

Thanks
hello
i have the intel mainbord S2600 ip4
i had to upgrade the bios first before i could install the esxi 5.5
is your bios up to date?
s2600wt have only one bios on web...and the same on mainboard.
I just reinstall the bios, but not work.
your board is supported though
i think it might be other hardware
bad memory module, raid controller card, vga card,bad power supply,etc....
I have the exact same problem, but I doubt it's a hardware error, as I installed Hyper-V with no issues whatsoever.
I thought the problem was in my RAID module (Intel RMS25KB040), but I added the drivers to ESXi instalation and got the same result...
The problem was memory mapped io in bios.
The intel support suggest me to disable and now all sevrer work.
Thank you all for support
berst regards

Thanks, it worked for me too! :smileyplus:
But still, I couldn't install ESXi 5.5, kept getting error during installation on tools.t00, but it worked with ESXi 5.1, and I'm OK with that...as long as I don't have to work with Hyper - V :smileycool:
