Unfortunately Intel has stopped supporting teaming for their own network card Intel Pro/1000 MT Dual port PCX on Windows 2008 R2. Don't know why but they think it is not my business ...hmm
To overcome this issue I found a solution from great internet and would like brief it here for your guys
- Download the Intel Networking solutions CD v15.3 from here: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=879&DwnldID=19002&lang=eng
- Extract the files
- Use device manager to update the drivers for the Intel Pro1000 MT NICs. I had to do each independently.
- You can now run the ProSet install from V15.3_CD\APPS\PROSETDX\Winx64\ProSetDX.msi and it will succeed.
- You will now see the TABS for Teaming etc in the properties of the NIC via Device Manager.
You owe me a beer :-)
Intel stopped this CD for downloaded from their site. Don't know why?????? Try alternative link below

Alternative way was tested and worked fine on my system
1. Download and install WinX64.exe driver from Intel
2. When it says "..no Intel adapter card found..." do not click on OK
3. Search for folder PRO1000. If you run as your domain administrator account it must be in C:\Users\Administrator.domain.local\AppData\Local.....
4. Copy parent folder of PRO1000 which includes other folders such as APPS,....
5. Click OK on the pop up window at step 2
6. Manual update driver for each Intel Pro 1000 MT adapter in Device Manager by using driver in PRO1000\Winx64\NDIS61
7. Run Intel WinX64.exe again and it will work
