This is the driver for the
AMD PCNET Family Ethernet Adapter/ISA+ (Legacy Mode) card (and some other adapters from other manufacturers compatible wit this device), but the HP PC LAN Adapter NC/16 TP (2100/1500T Compatible) card uses the same chip as AMD's cards and it's not on the list, so I tried it, and it worked like a charm. Just follow the info that comes with the driver, and it will work for shure ;)
