Curt, you can access the HP web site to get new drivers for your cards.  Try:

hpcc97.external.hp.com/cposupport/indexes1/pclanps.html

There are several driver files for the 2 HP products you mention.  Unfortunately most of them deal with Windows 95 or Windows NT.

The 3com card is a good one, I use them a lot, but again on Windows 95/NT.  Upgrading to Windows 95 would solve a lot of your problems.


Kind regards,

Subject:        HP ethertwist NIC's

Help!

I have a number of pc's in my office that have J2405 and 27245 HP network
interface cards in.  They are all connected to our 3000's, 9000's, netware
(on the 9000), and the internet.  They are running WFWG3.11.

I need to set them up to connect to a new NT server that we installed so we
can get rid of netware on the 9000.  But when I went to create the install
floppy for the first pc, it does not show ANY HP NIC's that you can use to
create the install floppies with.

Does anyone know what options I have.  Will I have to buy all new NIC's?
Can I select a different driver and get it to work?

I have one new NIC.  A 3com etherlink III that has never been installed.
Can I use this card in place of or in addition to the HP NIC?  If I replace
the HP NIC with the 3com NIC will I have to reinstall the drivers to get the
connection to work with the 3000's, 9000's, etc?

TIA
