Marvell AQC113C FourPartID Firmware updater edit

Have you tried using the "flashUpdate2 --recover" option by chance? Does that save the contents of the flash? I ordered a ch341a, so I'll see what I can do with that and see if it can back things up without desoldering.

i just tried its to recover a bad card
e.g. you flash an image to it not save

Okay, thanks for confirming it's a write operation not a read operation. It's too bad they don't have backup options like many of the other flashing tools.

Hello! I need some advice. I set the card (PCI\VEN_1D6A&DEV_14C0&SUBSYS_E0001458; AQC113C) to Message Signaled-Based Interrupts. Everything works fine if the number of vectors is set to either 1 (traffic will be processed by only one CPU core) or any value from 17 to 32. However, values ​​of 17-32 mean overhead, as my CPU only has 8 cores, and 17 or more vectors are excessive (E cores don't count, they're disabled).

However, I need to set MSI MAX LIMIT=4 vectors (all values ​​from 1 to 8 are important), i.e., for four CPU cores, which will process traffic depending on the card's Receive Side Scaling settings.
The problem is that with any other values, my card doesn't initialize, i.e., It's in the task manager and working properly, but the "no internet" icon in the system tray is there.

I even tried flashing the Marvell_aqc113_1.5.42 firmware to fix the issue, but nothing happened. I'm asking for help. Do you know where I can contact support or something for help? Maybe they'll release a driver, etc. Thanks! 

Hi, I'm over 4, but it bugs.
