Not too long ago I picked up a DEC Venturis FX 5120.
It contains a 3COM
3C905-TX network card. There are some sites around the web that purport
to have drivers for this card, but I am very wary of downloading
anything from these sites.
Does anyone happen to have drivers for this card? I am not sure what OSs
this card was supported on, so any drivers at all would be appreciated.
These were extremely difficult to find, but try these links.
At a minimum you'll want 3c90x1.exe and 3c90x2.exe files which are
self-extracting lha archives to create the two 3.5" disk images for the
Etherdisk XL package. It had been many years since I went looking for this
stuff and HP is not making it easy to find now. I suspect it would be even
more difficult (if not impossible) to find older Etherdisk packages for
even older network cards.
