infiniband

I picked up some infiniband cards off ebay for development/testing purposes.

I was hoping that there would be some drivers available under windows 7, but it doesn't seem to be recognised by the OFED software which would seem to contain windows drivers. They are however immediately picked up by Ubuntu and drivers are loaded.

Are these cards supported under windows 7 at all?

mstflint under linux reports:

Image type:      Failsafe
FW Version:      4.8.930
I.S. Version:    1
Device ID:       25208
Chip Revision:   A0
Description:     Node             Port1            Port2            Sys image
GUIDs:           001a4bffff0c9374 001a4bffff0c9375 001a4bffff0c9376 001a4bffff0c9377
Board ID:         (HP_0060000001)
VSD:
PSID:            HP_0060000001

From what I can tell they are the following: HP IB 4X DDR PCI-e DUAL PORT HCA (HP part number 409376-B21)
