Can't uninstall Ethernet

Running Win2KPro SP4.
I set up a network with my Win95 box about a year ago but it was more
trouble than it was worth, so I uninstalled everything that I had installed.
A while later I was in Device Manager for a different reason and discovered
the yellow ? on Ethernet AND HP Deskjet 940C.
I can't find anything wrong with the HPDJ, but also cannot get rid of the
warning. That doesn't bother me for the time being because it works OK, and
doesn't nag me.
But I would like to get rid of the Ethernet because I don't need it, since I
have only a 26.4 dialup connection. And if I uninstall the driver, the next
time I boot I get a message to reinstall the Ethernet.
A friend told me to disable it in the BIOS. I have a KT6 Delta MS-6590 (v2.X)
ATX Mainboard with an American Megatrends v07.00T 04/02/01 BIOS, but cannot
find anything in the manual regarding the disabling of Ethernet or the LAN.
This may be a trivial thing but I do not like to be nagged, especially by a
machine - even if it is smarter than I am.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Bob
