You're new, so you might want to read the following:

"Include important information
    Don't waste everyone's time with a hopelessly incomplete question.
No one other than you has the information needed to resolve your
problem, it is better to provide more information than needed than one
detail too little. Any question should include at least the version of
OpenBSD (i.e., "3.2-stable", "3.3-current as of July 20, 2003"). Any
hardware related questions should mention the platform (i.e., sparc,
alpha, etc.), and provide a full dmesg(8)."

The reason for that last bit about providing a "full dmesg" is the full
dmesg shows lots of important details. In a sense, you can think of
the full demeg as showing a picture of your full environment.

The product model number is not always indicative of the chips used
inside the product. But in your case, this is irrelevant.

Take a look inside /usr/src/sys/dev/pci/pccbvar.h
HINT: The "TI PCI1620" is not listed.

In short, there might not be anything "wrong" with your 3com card, but
instead, the PCMCIA/CardBus controller (i.e. slot) is not supported.
