OptiPlex GX280 on-board NIC

As soon as I got this system, I installed Windows Server 2003 over the top of the Windows XP it came with.  Now, I have exclamations in front of several devices in Device Manager, including the Ethernet controller.  I've looked high and low and found nothing to indicate exactly what card that system is running.  Without knowing that, I'm shooting in the dark to find which device driver to download and install manually.
 
That, and the Dell support lines are down :(
 
Can anyone help?

go to support.dell.com... I think thats it... put in your service tag and it will pull up the necessary drivers. Most likely you will be using the broadcom gigabit.  B57xx

Try with the XP drivers, they work properly; At least check it, because if they don't work the system doesn't let you install them.

The nic in my gx280 is a Gigabit Broadcom netxtreme 57xx if that is any help.
