I fixed it! This speedtest was done on my server, so upload/download is swapped for the actual PC in question.

What I did was install older VISTA drivers manually from this site: http://www.realtek.cz/ I used the drivers dated 2008-10-30 and they worked wonderfully! I found this out because I was researching the same problem with the Realtek NIC chipset in my PC at work. It was a BRAND NEW PC that I just built, and as soon as I installed W7 it had the same problem as the PCs I had at home. I finally found that site and tried the older Vista drivers and my 300k connection went up to almost the full 2Gb I was supposed to have (4Gb full duplex).
EDIT: HAHAHAHAHA, who was I kidding?!!?! It went back to being a piece of crap. Even after installing the new Marvell gigabit PCIe NIC, same problem. This is the result on the gigabit card:

And now this is the result of the onboard Realtek NIC:

I'm going to try some older drivers. I still think it's wierd that the system interrupts kill the download to the PC more than the upload. I'm really starting to hate Windows 7
