In another PC go to the web page of the manufacturer of your mobo, look for the network drivers download it and save in your USB or CD.

After this, in your pc and follow this steps:

Rigth on my pc, properties, hardware tab, device manager, look for the network port (in yellow or red), right click update driver. Select update from an special location and select your USB or CD.

If your driver is a .msi or .exe file, just run it.
