Restored Laptop and now Network drivers missing from device manager

Hi,
I have a Sony Vaio Laptop VGN-NS20M and have rebooted it as had a few issues with it.
Now the internet drivers have disappeared from device manager. The only thing there related to the internet is under modems. Which has nothing to do with the wifi or the ethernet port.
I have tried the drivers from the Sony website but they just do nothing, and the troubleshooting from the network icon just says
Windows cannot find a driver for your network adapter.
Its a dual boot laptop with Vista and Win7 and have the same issues on both.
Any advice would be great.

when you downloaded the network driver and then ran it did it go through the usual new software install or did nothing happen?
