Have you checked the BIOS to see if the sound and ethernet are disabled?

Raw would know this stuff better than me... but if you type /sbin/lsmod it should show a module installed for the 3com card called 3c59x.
If it does not, you may be able to get it to load by adding this to /etc/modprobe.conf : alias eth0 3c59x Raw, correct me if I am wrong
