Try the LAN driver sp43226.exe listed on this page

https://drivers.eu/PC/HP/Pavilion%20p6110y

This site had a clean download with no advertising or hoiden stuff in that file

 

If there is a win7 sticker on the case you can upgrade to windows 10

some vista system came with a free upgrade to 7.  You can tell by looking in the bios for a specific license code (2.1) that allows win7 and eventually the free windows 10 upgrade

 

I actually recommend desktop ubuntu for your older system.
