Missing ethernet controller driver

Last response: in Motherboards

Hey,

My friend gave my an old Tyan Tiger K8W mobo complete with processor, case, and the rest of the computer. I finally plugged it in and notciced that while I have it plugged into my router via LAN it was not showing it as connected. I checked in Network connections and all it displayed was an IEEE 1394 connection, no LAN. Finally I went to the device manager and found out that no driver was installed for the ethernet controller. I've got no idea what to do now. I've googled it and I can't find any driver downloads, and all I've thought of is updating the BIOS. Can anyone link me to the driver, or post a tutorial or something on how to flash a bios without access to floppy drives. Finally I would very much prefer if I didn't have to buy anything. No FDD, not network cards, etc.

Thanks
