Sorry to say that, but then network cards can be had very affordably these days. I bought a realtech 10/100 for $10 at a computer fair some time ago, for instance. You might need to decide whether chasing this particular card, or just replacing it is the smarter way to go. ace writes: > Hello, > > I have a 3C505 Ethernet card (according to my friend who sent it to me).
