I need to install an ethernet drive for dell

it needs an operating system

To get the ethernet driver for the Dell OptiPlex GX270 please follow the following link to Dells website (http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R66787&SystemID=PLX_PNT_CEL_GX270&servicetag=&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=4159&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=2&catid=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=0&libid=5&typeid=-1&dateid=-1&formatid=-1&source=-1&fileid=86705)
This is the Dell OptiPlex LOM (LAN On Motherboard) driver and should clear up any issues you are having with the ethernet port.
To install the driver you will need to Download it from the above link. Double click the downloaded file once it is complete. Follow the onscreen instructions.
