Starwind AoE Initiator - Driver Fail - Can't force mount

I have the most recent StarWind AoE Initiator installed and I am now getting device driver fail. I cannot even use the Initiator to get connected to the coraid shelves. I have not had any issues till this day.

Windows 2008 R2 64-bit SP1
HP DL580 G4 (4GB/2CPUx2Core)
I have tried configuring the driver to different nics, uninstalling, reinstalling and restarting the service. The driver *aoe.sys ceases to function at all. I cannot reinstall either. I am at a loss here. I would get you logs but I can't even get it to work anymore. There seems to be a issue with the AoE driver itself.

Thanks,

BG

What did you do to make it break initially? Installed any firewall software? Updated NIC drivers? Can you manually remove driver from Device Manager asking Windows to remove files as well, re-boot and try to install it again? If it would fail installing could you please provide a screenshot of your failed attempt? Thanks!
