Hello and welcome to Tom's Hardware Forums.

Have you tried inputting the model number in the support and drivers area at the Acer website? You're probably looking for the Realtek High Definition Audio software and there are three different versions to my knowledge.

I thought you wanted audio and not ethernet. Go into Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager and right click on Network Adapter, then on Ethernet Adapter. Go to Properties then Details and scroll to HardwareIDs. Note the four characters which follow VEN for Vendor and the four after DEV for Device. Post that information back here and someone will find the right driver for you.
