NIC Teaming having a General Failure Error

windows-server-2012

I'm trying to create a NIC Team for a Windows Server 2012 but I'm getting an error: General Failure.

I tried to restart the server, disconnect all the ethernet cable from the NICs and to deactivate static address for all the NIC but nothing seems to work. I have a second server working perfectly with NIC teaming with 4 NICs and Windows Server 2012 R2.

(The servers are not connected to each other and I'm not using Hyper-V)

Thanks again.

Try leaving the nic unplugged and create the team with just 1 NIC plugged into the network. Make sure that the drivers you have are winHQL drivers.
