Sounds like the network card drivers aren't installed. Right-click on your My Computer icon, click on Manage, select Device Manager from the list on the left hand side, then see if there are items showing up in the right hand column with a Yellow Exclamation point next to it.

Chances are you're going to have to download the drivers on another computer, and copy them to a USB Flash drive, so you can to move them to the other computer and install them so you have network access.
