    Hi Ruby1337 welcome to the forums, here is a link to the drivers ftp://ftp.download.packardbell.com/D...07)/Driver/Xp/ its the realtek lan driver you require , if you tell me the year the pc was made we can narrow it down further , the drivers are sadly for XP only so install them in compat mode Compatibility Mode , Un fortunately your pc is what is know as a legacy model so packard bell no longer supports it
    Pebbly link has your net card as intel Pro 100.

    Try this one from intel from here:

    It's got to be the Realtek then , You say you bought the PC with win 7 already installed ? It's an old PC did you buy it off someone other than a retailer ?
