e machines E-4076 network card query

[duderank]

It would appear that my e machines E-4076 network card may need to be replaced. Can anyone please tell me what I need to ask for when obtaining a replacement and from where I might get one. Is there a specific card to get, or there others on the market that may be compatible with this model machine?

Any pci ethernet card.

It appears to have 2 pci slots allthough the modem if it's still in it will be taking up 1 of those slots.

 

If you're not in a hurry I have probably got one I can post to you.

why do you think it needs replaced, NIC's are generally very reliable

It's just that someone suggested that my network card failing might be responsible for my current problems with PXE 32 Timeout errors. I know there are other reasons for this happening but they seem to think it's the card that's at fault.
