Intel 21041 Based PCI Ethernet Adaptor, 100Mbps not recognized

Virtual w2k running in VPC v7.0.1 running in OS X v10.3.9 on PowerBook
G4 (not Intel chips) recognizes the Mac's built-in Ethernet adaptor,
but only at 10 Mbps, not 100 Mbps. Is this a driver issue? Virtual w2k
network adaptor config shows the following for the adaptor: Intel
21041 Based PCI Ethernet Adaptor, driver Microsoft v 5.5.0.0. I have
found a long list of driver downloads at Intel.com (support), many of
which claim to support 100 Mbps, but I have no idea which one to get.
I have had no success searching the Microsoft.com Virtual PC support
page.

Moreover, I can't even find out what adaptor is actually physically
installed in the Mac PowerBook! The famous Mac user-friendliness (hide
the nuts and bolts) can be overdone; just a simple tech-spec would
probably nail this issue.

Any ideas on how to get 100 Mbps out of the virtual w2k network
adaptor?
