Hi James,

If you can wait two days, it might be worth trying 7.10 instead
(http://www.ubuntu.com/).

Network connectivity has improved throughout the years, especially
with wireless cards.

Saying that, it wouldn't harm burning your 7.04 to disk, and booting
up into the live disk to see whether your network card is detected.

If you go to System->Administration->Network, you should (hopefully!)
see a bunch of cards there.
