rpn=PSMA0U&modelFilter=M100&selCategory=3&selFamily=1073768663&selModel=1277462%7CPSMA0U
They list nothing newer
The two drivers I could see there, appear to be Intel. So
another place to look for drivers would be -
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/
Intel has their version, of providing assistance in
identifying what LAN chip is involved.

Instead, I'd take Everest, go to Devices
CI and get the info
there. You install and run this on the laptop, to get some
information.

For example, if I go to Devices
CI for my current
computer, then take the entry that corresponds to
my network chip, the value for Device ID is "1106-3065".
Next, I get a copy of pci.ids . This is a text file and
can be saved and opened later with Wordpad.
http://pciids.sourceforge.net/pci.ids
If I scroll down in the list, I find these two lines
in close proximity.
1106 VIA Technologies, Inc.
...
3065 VT6102 [Rhine-II]
So I know my chip is a Rhine-II.
You'd do a similar thing for the Intel chip. Use
Everest, to either get the name directly from the
built-in enumeration, or use the Device ID, to find
the identity in pci.ids.
Then, it is back to the Intel downloadcenter site,
A look in Ethernet Components:Ethernet Controllers,
might find a match for the required driver.
