You will need to download and install the drivers for your Ethernet device. It's best to download the drivers before you perform a Windows reinstallation, saving them to a USB memory stick or some other safe place, but in your case, it sounds like that wasn't possible.
Would you happen to know the make / model of motherboard, or if you have a pre-built system, the make / model of your computer? We can probably find drivers for you relatively easily provided we know what we're after.

Are you running Windows 7 64-bit or 32-bit?
Edit: Nevermind, it looks like the driver package is the same for both 64-bit and 32-bit versions of Windows 7.

Run a memory test to make sure the RAM in your machine isn't malfunctioning.

Let several passes run.

Memory tests can be run outside of Windows. You will need to download and create a bootable device such as a USB memory stick or a CD which you use to boot the computer from.
The easiest method is going to be to download one of the pre-made .iso images and just burn it to a CD, then boot the computer with it and the tests start running on their own.
