Default Re-enabliing Ethernet

This ASUS P4P800 motherboard has built-in
Ethernet LAN, described as "Marvell Yukon Ethernet"
before I disabled it in BIOS (having in 2004 multiple
difficulties with a bad OS installation and faulty DUN
-- all solved then.)

Now with a wireless modem on hand I need to reinstal
Ethernet capacity:
1. In the BIOS I re-enabled On-board LAN.
Should I also re-enable On-board LAN boot
ROM? (No explanation in MB manual.)

2. What drivers (or INF file) are required for Marvell
Yukon Internet? When PCI Ethernet is found at
reboot as a New Device Win98SE fails to find for
itself the right drivers: and no subfolder on the
CD in / Drivers / Netlan is named anything like
Marvell or Yukon (neither listed in its README.TXT.)

2b. No fewer than 222 INF files on C: include the
string ETHERNET -- but not one MARVELL or YUKON.

What next in order to activate the Ethernet device?

To the original #1 question, no if it boots from the local hard drive. It
should have never been enabled to begin with - "re-enable".
