How can I get drivers for my IBM X40 laptop?

I have reinstalled installed Windows on my IBM X40 laptop and need the drivers it requires. From a different computer, I visited the IBM website and downloaded the necessary .exe files to my USB flash drive. I tried to install them to the X40 laptop but even after installing and rebooting there seems to be no change at all in the Device Manager. For now, I just want to get the Ethernet driver so the Internet works. The necessary .exe files are of the drivers. I have extracted the Setup.exe file for the Ethernet card and done the following: Start>Run>WLLANATH>Setup.exe. ... but the network card still does not show up in the Network Connections. I was able to install the audio driver by the above mentioned steps with the audio setup file. For some reason, I am unable to install the Ethernet driver following the same steps.
