To the best of my knowledge, the 4100 did ship with an onboard NIC, rather the NIC was one of a number of possible PCI add-in cards. You might try going to the Product Support tab at the top left of the Dell forum Window, entering your System Service Tag, and clicking on Original Configuration. This will give you a list of the components that shipped with your 4100 and from that you may be able to figure out which NIC shipped with your system.
Actually, the NIC is built right into the board. It is next to the 2 USB ports. I plugged in my service code, but none of the NIC drivers want to work.

I now see that some models shipped with the integrated Intel NIC. Thus the drivers you need are the ones for the Intel 10/100 Management adapter:
