CentOS 7 not recognizing integrated nic

[TheGleaner]

So on one of my older machines, previously running windows server, I decided to try out the linux(s), So I cycled through a few of them and decided that CentOS 7 would work for me. So I re-installed centos, but now, unlike the first time, it wont recognize my integrated nic. If I recall correctly, it is a Intel integrated nic. When I search this, all I found was solutions relating to nvidia nics.(I tried the kmod-forcedeth, solution anyways, didn't work.) Any Ideas?

there should be a driver in the epel repo, but you need the network to get to that. Use a usb nic if you have one laying around. Otherwise centos 6 should work fine.
