i have come to a dead end with getting my nic card to work in freebsd

this is my nic card info from windows.

and well i have added fxp to my kernel and rebuilt it.
device   fxp
but it doesnt see it. and when i do ifconfig fxp
it says no such device. i looked in src/pci for if_fxp.c and
if_fxpreg.h and if_fxpvar.h and nothing listed in there. i am in a
way new to freebsd well since 4.0. i would ever so grateful if you
could help me get my nic up and running. buying a dell with this
intergrated nic card has been a nightmare but there is nothing i can
do its on the board. and i love freebsd. if possible just the correct
steps to get it to see the card and have the driver installed. so i
can get online.
thank you for the time in reading this. it means the world to me.
