You might try drivers directly downloaded from Broadcom, which I believe makes the onboard NIC.
If you can connect it to a wireless network, you can try updating the driver online by right-clicking the device in Device Manager and selecting 'update driver.'

What's in the folders? What extensions do the files have? INF, SYS, or EXE?

I will try to find a Broadcom one, but the wireless and ethernet are both not working. Im using a USB to transfer it from PC to PC.
