Is it possible to find a driver for the 3Com 3C905CX or TX network card.

Any help please ?

Support for the NIC was dropped in ESXi 4.0. At that point VMware dropped support for 10/100 MBps NICs. I don't recall mention of a community compiled version for ESXi 5.

Michael,

Just in case you are still interested in a driver for your 3Com adapter.

I had compiled and posted a 3c59x driver for ESXi 5 at viewtopic.php?f=24&t=3527 months ago. This is the driver I personally use on my own ESXi 5 installation. My network adpater is a 3Com 3c905TX (Boomerang). So far the driver performs well without problems.
