If you don't mind updating LinuxCNC, you might be better off with more current replacements for the 5I20:
PCIE --> 6I24-16
Ethernet --> 7I80HDT
The 5I20 is a 20 year old card...

Good morning, thank you very much for your reply. I've already considered what you said about Linux. However, making the switch is quite complex because I use these cards in CNC machines, and my first option is to try to find these drivers.

Any that you do find will be second-hand. And old.
I would follow PCW's advice and change to a supported FPGA card. The 6i24 is in-stock at Mesa, but would need a PCIe motherboard rather than PCI.
It doesn't look like Mesa have stock of any full-size PCI cards at the moment.
(The 5i24 is the PCI version of the 6i24 but shows as out of stock)
The 6i24 will work with the same daughter cards as the 5i20.
It would be necessary to change "5i20" to "6i24" throughout the HAL file too.
