To explain PNP in detail would require more info than an e-mail is practical
for. Maybe http://www.upnp.org/ would be a good start.

If you get into your BIOS configuration, there should be an option to
disable PNP OS - sometimes PNP being enabled will cause problems with
the kernel -
If i turn off PNP, will it screw anything up? because i have a dual boot
with XP too. (i'll try it, as soon as i get back on that computer,
currently, im using my really crappy computer)

How are you trying to activate it?
When you reboot, you should see a line Starting eth0 during the section
where all the daemons start (charactarized by all the green OK's you
see). Do you see eth0 starting OK? or FAILED? Let us know. Also give us
some idea of what kinda system you're running.

Try (as root)
lsmod (look if a kernel module containing 8139 is listed - if not)
modprobe 8130cp
modprobe 8130too - if one of the last works it's your setup that makes
problems. (try the setup command at command line)
