I would try going into device manger and disabling the onboard nic there.
Since it is onboard their may also be a BIOS option to disable it. Even if you can't, Windows supports multiple NICs and nothing will be plugged into the onboard NIC.

@covad.net		 I found this NIC test online -- "Ping -t 127.0.0.1 " -- and ran it for a few pages with no errors. Do you think that's an indication the NIC is OK?

That does not test the NIC, that is a local loopback, it never touches and network cards; just looped back in the stack via software.
