Internet After Format
 
Just formatted my computer for the first time, and now cannot connect to the internet. I think I need to install drivers, or something.

I have an Intel Avalon D915GAV motherboard, judging by this picture: http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/8251/unitow6.th.png.

I have an Ethernet cable line, with Charter Communications.

One more pic:

So what do I do? Please help! I really want my internet back.

successfully installed graphics accelerator, but when I attempted to install the LAN drivers, it gave me this error message:

"Cannot install drivers. No Intel(R) PRO Adapters are present in this computer."

It says Ethernet Controller[noDB]. I searched that on google, with "drivers" on the end, and it just brought me to a bunch of forums.

Can you finish this off for me? I'll send you like 10 bucks if you get it working. Better than nothing.
