mjd79 Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 (edited) Hi, the integrated network card in my computer is probably broken... I found an old 3COM on PCI, unfortunately it only has drivers for 32 bit systems. I am not able to install it through the device manager because the architecture does not match. Is it possible to get around this somehow? Thank you in advance for your answer Edited March 12, 2023 by mjd79 1

Thank you in advance for your answer I don't really know if this is possible (ive never used a network card) but with as much talented people as there is here solution should be a easy to find solution for this -legacyfan Edited March 13, 2023 by legacyfan 1

I have always been convinced that he does not work. Problem solved Edited March 13, 2023 by mjd79
