    Old 3Com NIC installation

    hey fellas,

    i'm sorry for posting this in Chit Chat but i know there are some talented people out here.

    i have this old (1992) 3com ISA NIC - EtherLink III - 3C509TP
    and i'm running Win 2K, SP2. i plugged the card in, and started machine. Windows did not find that card, i don't know why...
    i tried looking for some software/drivers for it but couldn't....

    what should i do?

    I bought an RTL8019 compatible for £10 Works perfectly on Win2k and 98 (actually have two identical cards - one on this machine, and one on the 2K box the other side of the room).
