Windows 2008 Broadcom teaming issue

Question

Installed Windows 2008 on Dell Poweredge 2650 with Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet cards.  Tried to setup teaming using the BACS 4 management software.  I receive an error.  'Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet does not support teaming.  Please select an adapter with NDIS 6 driver'.  Broadcom faq site, http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/faq_drivers.php, has a similar error and explanation of making sure that no other drivers are bound to the miniport driver.   I checked and I don't think I have anything bound to it.  No antivirus driver.  Removed WAN Miniport (XXX).  The BACS 4 software indicates I'm running NDIS 5.1 drivers.    Does the Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet support NDIS 6.0 and teaming in Windows 2008?  Any one have any success?  Thanks in advance.
