Hi,
read this document:
http://www.intel.com/support/network/adapter/1000/linux/e1000.htm
compile the module and follow the steps.
Fetch the drivers from the intel site. Follow this link *exact*:
http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df/File_Filter.asp?FileName=e1000-
If you get into trouble, get back to the list.
Regards,
Bhaskar.
