AnswerTMG Beta3: STOP-error from netio.sys

    Today I installed Forefront TMG Beta 3 on my Windows 2008 R2-server (Enterprise). After installing, my system wouldn't reboot anymore. It's loading Windows, then starts loading the system-configuration and then I get a BSOD telling me about a 'DRIVER IRQ LESS OR EQUAL'. The source is the file netio.sys.

    Does anyone know what could be wrong? I guess it has something to do with the network-drivers or the filter TMG installs, but when I start in Safe Mode with Networking, I'm able to boot and log on.

    This system used to be a DC, but I demoted it before installing TMG.

    I hope someone has had the same problem or know a solution.

    TMG B3 is not supported on Windows Server 2008 R2.
    The soon-to-be-released-real-soon-now TMG RC will be supported on Windows Server 2008 R2.

    But the fact is, I had it running fine on another Windows 2008 R2-server. But I'll just wait for the RC then.

    On the other hand: was this a known bug? What was the exact cause of the bug then? And will it be fixed in the RC?
    I could post the dump-file if it would help solving this bug.
     
    Is there any idea of a release date?

    Yep - it's not a consistent repro.
    You're welcome to post the dump file, since it may expose a bug we haven't seen.
    As I said; TMG RC will be supported on WS08 R2.

    lol - I can confirm the BSOD with FTMG B3 and 2008 R2. I upgraded my machine last weekend to run the new UAG RC as 2008 R2 is a requirement and trashed my machine totally after the final reboot. Maybe I should have known better as it was a painful experience.
