Default RC1 (5600) Missing 3com Network drivers ?

I find it hard to believe but the 3com network drivers appear to be missing
or unsupported in the RC1(5600) build available on msdn:

Im missing 3c920 and the other Generally compatible Etherlink 3c905c-TX.
The 3-com list is mising although some 3 com drivers appear under broadcom
list

If anyone comes across a link to download let me know and il use XP session
to download them ...

I have been using the XP driver that came with my motherboard CD. It
works, with a few issues that may or may not be driver related.
Firefox is very slow, Agent only gets about 40 headers at once. IE
works fine.

Ditto here. I had to use the old XP driver for the onboard 3C940 NIC on my
mobo to get networking running...and the driver is missing from builds 5728
and 5744 as well.
