Arrow Ethernet Controller Driver Needed

I'm having a similar issue to a couple other threads. I can't get the computer online (since no ethernet controller is showing up) - so most of the handy tools like Belarc Advisor don't work for me.

I've downloaded half a dozen drivers from Gigabyte and Intel to no avail so far. (I'm also having trouble with the multimedia audio controller, but the ethernet is by far the larger priority)

I installed XP over Windows98 and I don't have any of the disks other than the XP one itself.

Here's the Everest report.

Gigabyte drivers here http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Support/M...ProductID=1655

1st install the Intel chipset driver - then Restart your comp, this must ne installed before any drivers

2nd the Intel Pro 100

Set a System Restore Point before installing any drivers just in case
Start / All Programs / Accessories / System Tools / System Restore – click radio button Create a restore point and follow instructions
