Drivers for Dell Dimension 2350 network "card"

Hi! I loaded Windows XP Pro on my Dimension 2350 (service tag DPY7T21), and now have no drivers for my network "card". Actually, what the Ethernet cable from the DSL modem plugs into is something called a Pulse Jack JYO 0002, not really a card.

When I go to the downloads site for this PC, I have 2 choices for network drivers. How do I know which one I need to download? (There are 4 listings, but 2 are for laptops).

Thanks!

    Your network card configuration doesn't sound familiar... Was this a factory installed configuration by Dell?

    If not, then you need to go to the manufacturers website to download any drivers that you require.

    Also, if you have recently installed Windows XP, you will need to install chipset drivers for your computer first! Then install the network drivers.
     
    Chipset drivers can be found at the driver download site at Dell support.

    None of the listed drivers are for laptops.  One if for a router but the other three are viable desktop network card drivers.  My experience has been to always go with the first one listed especially in this case since I doubt your 2350 has a gigabit NIC card in it it:
