WinPcap can support HDLC only if windows supports it, i.e. if NDIS provides it in its interface. Looking at the OID_GEN_MEDIA_SUPPORTED OID in the DDK documentation, I wasn't able to find HDLC among the exported MACs, so I suppose you will not be able to capture with your card. There is still the possibility that the card's driver exports HDLC as an ethernet adapter: this could allow winpcap to work, so you can try and see what happens.
