Set the system BIOS to boot from the hard drive.
Re-boot the target device directly from the hard drive.
Un-install the target device software from this hard drive.
Upgrade NIC driver as directed by the manufacturer’s instructions.
Re-install the target device software on the hard drive.
Re-image the hard drive to make a new vDisk image.
