Ethernet Controller still not working after driver install

So I'm starting up a render farm for UDK and After Effects, and I have about 8 computers at the moment. One of them is a Dell Dimension 2350, and I cannot get the Ethernet to work on it.
I've installed this driver:
http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/kcs/document?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&docid=DSN_D4A6B1A87E7D2BBBE030A68F27285798&isLegacy=true
Didn't work. I've installed this one:
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R56237&SystemID=DIM_PNT_CEL_2350&servicetag=&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=4316&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=1&catid=5&impid=-1&formatcnt=0&libid=5&typeid=-1&dateid=-1&formatid=-1&source=-1&fileid=66981
And that didn't work aswell, they are both listed as being for the Dimensions 2350.
I've also installed the Intel 845GL chipset driver before the ethernet ones.
Here are the specs for the PC:

If anyone has any light to shed, please help.

Thanks :)
