There are a number of different versions for that Intel Pro 100 and I believe 
they all use different drivers.  If it works in ME/2K then maybe you can use 
those OSes to help you identify which one it is exactly (or if you also have 
Linux on the laptop it may be helpful as well [lspci is a nice command]).
