XP driver for 100VG J2585B NIC

[Ivan Horvat]

Hi,
Does anyone know where to get an XP driver for my 100VG network?
I have AdvanceStack HP J2410A and J2585B NICs.
I need to connect some PC's running Win XP Pro, but I cannot find an XP driver.
Is there some workaround?
It is a good, fast and EXPENSIVE network and I am not ready to throw it away just to increase HP profit.
An answer I got from Kathy, the forum administrator, directing me to look for a networking topic where there is none, was in the best HP driver tradition, too little too late.
TIA
Ivan

Hi Mic, that doesn't work. actually nothing there seems to be working, wasted my time registering and opening myself to SPAM. ha!

in case anyone is interested, download using "driver2", password is "all"

Hi,

sorry to hear that. Have you looked through all the web pages that google shows when you search for J2585B driver xp?

those are fruads! They're available from HP's very own site. They just mirror the downloads, get people to register and in the mist put in spywares, ask you stupid questions to sign up this and that.
