Need Dell Dimension 2400 Network drivers for Windows Server 2003.?

I bought and old Dell Dimension 2400 from a friend. I decided to make it a server so I installed Windows Server 2003 on it. However, the integrated network card drivers do not work. Do you guys know where to find them? I tried chatting with dell and the want to charge me to help me out. If it is not possible, do you know of a plug and play PCI NIC that will work for this OS.

If you go to Dell.com you can download the drivers for just about any system. The XP driver should work just fine for server 2003. Check the CHIPSET for the unit and download one from Intel or Broadcom (I think that is the integrated nic) whoever made the chipset if those don't work.

Just about any PCI NIC with a MAJOR manufacturer should work, just disable the onboard to avoid issues. The Realtek cards are usually cheap and fairly reliable.
