3com networkadapter

I installed windowsXP a few days ago and everything works fine except for my 3com 3C509TP ISA networkadapter (Not Plug & Play). It works fine on windows 98 & DOS, but windows XP won't even find my 3com card.

I installed windowsXP a few days ago and everything works fine except for my 3com 3C509TP ISA networkadapter (Not Plug & Play). It works fine on windows 98 & DOS, but windows XP won't even find my 3com card.
I downloaded a DOS based program which sums up all 3com network cards, in DOS it finds my card, but if I try running the same program from windows XP it finds nothing.
 
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Go out and buy yourself a nice $40 Intel network card.

Can I vote for a CNet 200PCI? It automatically installs in XP and no startup delay like "hooking bootstrap IRQ 15.2
 
Just get the regular version and not WOL version, unless you plan to use it.

ISA is kinda dead with XP. D-Link DFE 530TX cards are pretty cheap, less than $20, and Best Buy has 'em on sale with mail-in rebates that knock the cost down to $5. They're solid cards, nothing fancy, but they get the job done.
